“When you choose a lawyer, you are hiring an advocate, an expert advisor on the law and your rights and responsibilities, a strategist, and a litigator.”
In an increasingly complex real estate environment, property owners, co-owners, real estate professionals, developers, landlords, and private clients face legal and litigation issues that require specialized expertise and a thorough understanding of real estate matters.
ARPEGE LAW FIRM is an independent law firm specializing primarily in real estate law and real estate litigation, as well as business law, tax law, and corporate law.
Based on the French Riviera, the firm serves clients in Cannes, Saint-Tropez, Monaco, and Paris—including both French and international clients—in complex real estate litigation and transactions involving residential, commercial, professional, hotel, and luxury real estate properties.
The firm assists its clients in all types of real estate litigation, including, in particular , disputes involving condominium ownership, disputes between co-owners, disputes with property management companies, structural defects and poor workmanship, water infiltration and waterproofing issues, liability of builders and real estate professionals, construction projects, defects and non-conformities, commercial and residential leases, unpaid rent, evictions, disturbances of possession, easements, common walls, or disputes related to real estate transactions.
Our expertise also extends to high-stakes litigation, particularly when it involves luxury real estate, large-scale real estate developments, hotel assets, real estate development projects, or real estate portfolios held by corporations or investment vehicles.
In addition to litigation, the firm provides real estate advisory services to its clients, particularly in connection with acquisitions and dispositions, the drafting and review of contracts, construction projects, condominium ownership, leases, and the legal structuring of real estate transactions.
The firm’s expertise in corporate law, tax law, and business law enables it to address real estate issues from a comprehensive perspective, particularly when the dispute involves a company that owns or operates a real estate asset.
ARPEGE LAW FIRM prioritizes a tailored, strategic, and litigious approach based on an in-depth analysis of the case, risk anticipation, and the pursuit of legally sound and economically sound solutions.
When necessary, the firm works in coordination with a network of notaries, court-appointed experts, architects, real estate appraisers, engineering firms, certified public accountants, and technical building specialists to fully understand every aspect of each case.
Our goal: to defend our clients’ interests, safeguard their real estate rights, and provide legal and strategic solutions to the most complex real estate situations.
