Firm Description:
New York, the start point of a future flourishing and growing partnership where two brilliant students sharing the same social and ethical values met for the first time and built mutual trust and confidence while pursuing their law studies at Loyola University Law school, USA.
After graduation and driven by common values and strong ambitions for a broader horizon into the future, the future managing partners, Mr. Yannil BELBACHIR and Mr. Rodolfo DRUDI met to outline their future professional goals and how intend to achieve them. Both express, out of desire and passion, their dream to create a business law firm providing high quality advisory and litigation services to international business companies in North African countries and to help through the investment regulations governing these markets.
The idea became a reality with the establishment of the first office in Libya in 2008 and the approach of Algeria the following year, in a different context marked by complex market regulations in both countries, including the unrest that affected Libya in 2011. However, these negative conditions never intimidated them and for more than 13 years, the Firm has learned to mitigate risks and turn them into opportunities for its clients, earning the trust of leading multinationals and international organizations.
Indeed, these achievements are the result of their dedication and patience, their ethical values, and a real understanding of the social, cultural, economic, and administrative framework of the target markets. These values have been transferred to the firm, which over the years has built a dynamic and flexible team whose talented members come from multicultural backgrounds and have extensive experience in handling complex legal matters.
