As a partner at LexCase since 2025, I lead the Environmental, Energy, and Infrastructure Law department.
I became an attorney after 10 years of experience as an in-house lawyer in the energy sector, where I developed a highly operational approach dedicated to supporting the projects of my internal contacts.
I maintain this approach in my legal practice, ensuring precise and pragmatic legal solutions that align closely with my clients’ operational needs.
Together with my team, I assist private and public clients in both advisory and litigation matters, in the following areas of expertise:
Environmental Law:
- Environmental assessments,
- Public information and participation,
- Single environmental permit,
- Protected species and habitats,
- Classified installations (ICPE), water resources (IOTA), and waste management,
- Prevention of natural and technological risks, etc.
Energy and Infrastructure:
- Administrative project authorizations (renewable energy, hydrogen, storage…),
- Land security (public domain/private domain/private property),
- Grid connection and access,
- Production valuation, energy purchases, aggregation,
- Contractual structuring,
- Other regulatory matters (agrivoltaics, individual and collective self-consumption, storage, biofuels, flexibility solutions…).
The department has developed a particularly recognized expertise in renewable energy law and supports numerous renewable energy developers and producers in their projects.
