Simon Associés

Founded in 1992, SIMON ASSOCIÉS is a renowned business law firm with offices in Paris, Lille, Lyon - Bourg-en-Bresse - Pontarlier, Montpellier, Nantes, Toulouse and Versailles. Together with the members of the SIMON AVOCATS network (a network of independent law firms), the firm boasts over 200 lawyers in France, as well as an international network of renowned law firms in over 64 countries

SIMON ASSOCIÉS is close to its clients and sensitive to their economic concerns. The firm's activities initially focused on its core areas of expertise: mergers & acquisitions, private equity, banking law and financing, distressed companies, franchising, networks and distribution, both as advisors and litigators.

These areas of expertise have naturally led SIMON ASSOCIÉS to broaden its expertise with the creation of complementary departments in tax law, real estate law, labor law, international law, information and communication network law, and more recently in health law and compliance.

The firm's strength is based on a number of assets: its teams and legal expertise, first and foremost, but also its responsiveness and availability, based on a thorough understanding of the business world, its customs and power relationships in an increasingly competitive economy. These assets contribute to the culture of SIMON ASSOCIÉS, which has developed a transversal approach to the prevention of legal and judicial risks, based on qualified procedures and a structured organization. The implementation of actions and tools that take into account a company's technical, economic, human, legal and operational environment guarantees its clients a reduced level of risk.

As a full-fledged player in the legal world, SIMON ASSOCIÉS is a member of a number of business organizations, and regularly publishes articles on business issues, as well as various e-letters on legal news in France and abroad.

In 2024, we added a notarial offering to our business with the Pergeline Simon Notaires office, which is developing new services, particularly in the fields of business transfers, investment and corporate law, taking advantage of the special features of the notarial deed.
