Boutique firm Bougartchev Moyne Associés boasts a highly experienced and well-staffed team, which enjoys sustained recognition from a high-profile client base of companies and individuals. The firm has long standing experience handling highly sensitive international corruption and bribery cases, especially in the defence industry sector where it has a strong track record advising on prominent cases. The diverse caseload also encompasses money-laundering, tax fraud and even moral harassment and criminal employment law, while the team also assists individuals with international extradition issues. Recently, the team is increasingly mandated to handle cases in the IT sector, involving a major internet platform and cryptocurrencies.  A number of banks are also clients. The highly regarded Kiril Bougartchev and the excellent Emmanuel Moyne  co-head the practice. Of note, Edward Huylebrouck and Geoffroy Goubin left the firm early 2025.
