The highly experienced Philippe Delelis and the excellent Nicolas Brice jointly head the practice, with counsel Pierre Barthélemy also a key names. Of note, the team further strengthened its capabilities through the hiring of Xavier Domino as of counsel, a former magistrate of the Conseil d’Etat (France’s highest administrative court) in 2023.
