Cabinet d'Avocats Emmanuel J. M. ARAGUAS

The French Lawyer

For more than 20 years, Cabinet d’Avocats Emmanuel J.M. Araguas has provided professional French legal advice and representation to individuals, families and businesses throughout France and internationally.

As a qualified French Avocat and admitted Solicitor in England and Wales, Emmanuel Araguas offers a unique understanding of both French and common law systems, helping English-speaking clients navigate legal matters with confidence.

Whether you require assistance with property transactions, inheritance matters, contract disputes, litigation, debt recovery or cross-border legal issues, we provide practical legal solutions tailored to your circumstances.

French Legal Services for UK and International Clients

Many of our clients are based outside France and require clear, practical legal guidance when dealing with French law. We regularly assist individuals, families, investors and businesses from the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Channel Islands and other international jurisdictions who need legal representation or advice in France.

Navigating a different legal system can be challenging, particularly when language barriers, unfamiliar procedures and cross-border regulations are involved. As a French Avocat with experience of both French and English legal systems, Emmanuel Araguas helps clients understand their legal position, communicate effectively with French authorities and pursue their objectives with confidence.

Although based in Western France, we represent clients throughout the country and regularly assist with matters before courts, tribunals and administrative bodies across France.

Modern communication methods allow us to work efficiently with clients regardless of location, providing advice remotely while ensuring legal representation is available wherever required.

Who We Are

We are a firm of young lawyers (Avocats) based in Western France, in the Poitou-Charentes area, half-way between Aquitaine and Normandy, operating everywhere across France and widely used to undertake any legal work from France, Great-Britain and the whole United-Kingdom, the Channel Islands, Ireland or Asian countries residents.

We have been doing it for more than seventeen years with our French-speaking clients.

With our English-speaking clients, we do it mostly thanks to an extensive knowledge of both the English legal system or Norman Customary law (still at force in the Bailiwick of Guernsey and the Bailiwick of Jersey).

We have a good knowledge of those countries' cultural heritage (Emmanuel is also appointed as a Visiting Academic at the Institute of Law, Jersey, CI), and understand how to operate smoothly when necessary.

Our policy is to comply with both French Avocats' professional rules and the Solicitors’ Code of Conduct.
