Valmy Avocats

Founded in 2012, Valmy Avocats is an independent business law firm offering both advisory and litigation services.

The firm supports clients across a wide range of practice areas, including corporate and commercial law, real estate law, labor law, restructuring, intellectual property and technology law, environmental law, and public law.

Valmy Avocats is also a key player in private equity and mergers and acquisitions, representing clients before all civil and commercial courts.

Where It All Began

After a joint pleading, Barthélemy Lemiale and Julien Vandromme decided to join forces to create a new-generation business law and litigation firm—precise and rigorous, yet agile and deeply committed to close client relationships.

One advises, the other defends. Together, this complementary duo envisioned a boutique firm aligned with a changing world, empowered by digital tools that enable exceptional responsiveness for their clients.

Founded in 2012, Valmy Avocats quickly built a reputation for modern, effective legal support in all areas of business law.

With the arrival of Maxime Lavayssière, followed by Margaux Nègre-Carillon, Constance Monod, Géraldine Astrup, and more recently Marie-Laetitia de la Ville-Baugé, the firm has expanded its services. Each partner brings diverse expertise and experience from leading French and international firms, united by a shared mission: to redefine the lawyer-client relationship through a personal approach built on trust and mutual understanding.

Recognized experts in their respective fields, the firm’s lawyers combine deep market knowledge, creativity, and technical excellence to deliver tailored, high-quality legal solutions with precision and care.

The firm’s growth is grounded in core values: expertise, flexibility, responsiveness, and a commitment to excellence.

Conscious of today’s social and environmental challenges, Valmy Avocats is actively engaged and takes meaningful, tangible steps to contribute to environmental preservation.
