EXPERIENCE
Corinne began her career in civil and criminal litigation in 1993. In 1997 she obtained a prize for rhetoric in the famous Paris Bar competition le “Concours de la Conférence” in which the 12 winners devote their time to criminal defense work and the representation of the Paris Bar abroad.
Since then, she has specialized in civil and criminal defense matters for both individuals and companies (in particular, both the prevention and defense of white collar crime).
