Our values
Grenier Avocats makes the most of its independent status within the groups it works with to make its considered advice freely available not only to in-house legal teams but also to the highest levels of management.
This attribute of being familiar with working with several legal systems and having access to very different parts of the world encourages a spirit of openness, an understanding of differences, and calls for a real ability to adapt.
Both in France and abroad, Grenier Avocats involves its clients closely in following the handling of their case(s). Each of our clients is well acquainted with the attorney in charge of their case(s). Clients systematically play a part in the selection of their legal partner whenever the case so requires.
Despite its high level of specialization in the field of industrial issues, its international reach and its dual competency in both counsel and litigation, Grenier Avocats is committed to remaining accessible whilst offering top-flight services.
In line with its emphasis on personalizing the solutions it offers its clients, Grenier Avocats also makes every effort to be a real presence in regular interchanges and, even more so, in emergency situations. The team’s ethos is to respond to clients without loss of time and be ready for swift action in support of clients at critical moments.
