Civil & Personal Injury · Droit Civil & Préjudice Corporel

When harm is done,
accountability follows.

Whether you have suffered a personal injury, a contractual breach, or a civil wrong, we pursue the full measure of compensation to which the law entitles you — without compromise.

Civil litigation encompasses a vast range of disputes — from road accidents and medical negligence to breach of contract and neighbourhood disputes. What all of these share is that someone has suffered a harm that the law can redress.

We appear before the Tribunal judiciaire de Lyon in civil matters and have extensive experience in quantifying complex prejudice — including bodily injury, loss of earnings, pain and suffering, and consequential damages.

Areas We Handle

Road Traffic Accidents

Claims against insurers under the Badinter Law, including compensation for bodily injury, vehicle damage, and consequential financial loss. We challenge insurer valuations that understate your prejudice.

Medical Negligence

Claims before the CRCI (Commission de Conciliation et d'Indemnisation) and civil courts for harm caused by medical errors, hospital-acquired infections, and surgical complications.

Contractual Disputes

Enforcement of contracts, claims for breach, rescission, and damages — across commercial, consumer, and construction contexts.

Property & Neighbourhood Disputes

Boundary disputes, servitudes, trouble de voisinage, and co-ownership conflicts before civil and administrative jurisdictions.

Liability & Damages

General civil liability claims — product liability, premises liability, and professional negligence — with rigorous expert-supported quantification of all heads of loss.

Frequently Asked Questions

Limitation periods vary: personal injury claims generally must be brought within 10 years of the date when damages are consolidated (consolidation). Contractual claims carry a 5-year limitation. We assess your position from the first consultation.

Yes — and you should. Insurers routinely make initial offers that understate the full extent of prejudice, particularly for personal injury. We obtain independent medical expert assessments and negotiate or litigate for the correct figure.

French law distinguishes numerous heads of loss: souffrances endurées, préjudice esthétique, préjudice d'agrément, perte de gains professionnels, and many others. We ensure all applicable heads are identified and properly valued.
