Who We Are - CVML

CVML is an independent law firm founded in Paris in 2003. In 2011, CVML was established in Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) – to service its Middle East and regionally based clients. At heart, CVML is all about culture, knowledge, and excellence. We offer sophisticated legal services using our local knowledge and an international approach. Culture is what drives us to be consistently focused on the importance of our clients. Knowledge resides in our multi-specialist lawyers who are equipped to handle a broad range of legal matters. Excellence enables us to offer an exceptional service combined with competitive fee rates. In addition to Paris and Dubai, we have several “best friend” relationships with other law firms across the UK, Cyprus, Armenia, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Egypt, Syria and Russia, together with most of the traditional “off-shore” jurisdictions. Our ability to offer a broad range of services and integrated common law and civil law advice has ensured a continuous expansion of our client base.Our lawyers work in focused practice groups, offering a seamless service in domestic and cross-border transactions and disputes.

OUR Values

COMMITTED

Because our clients expect us to advise them, but also to defend them, we place at their service our experience, analysis and expertise, but also our commitment.
INDEPENDENT

Because we have a thorough command of the law and an in-depth knowledge of the fields of activities of our clients, we deal with the questions submitted to our analysis with an independent eye. We are not afraid to say no, but also strive to suggest alternative solutions and strategies to reach their objectives, however ambitious.
CREATIVE

Because the law is the science of power balance, but also the cement of any enterprise, we propose legal strategies which are both creative and adapted, defining and implementing the most favourable solutions for our clients, whether in negotiations with a business partner or within the framework of litigation procedures.
PRAGMATIC

Because our clients expect relevant and efficient solutions even when problems are complex, and because we speak their language and understand their business and their stakes, we offer our clients clear advice and pragmatic solutions.
GLOBAL

Because the logics and the dynamics of business are complex, we have made the choice of a full service structure, which enables us to provide our clients with multi-faceted advice taking into account legal constraints in all of our fields of practice. In anticipating legal evolutions or in managing a crisis, our team approach offers clients a global vision of legal issues.
