INDIVIDUAL PRACTICE AREAS
Banking & finance law
Securing your financing and defending you in disputes with banks.
Our approach
Banking transactions rest on dense documentation that is often signed without negotiation: loan terms, security, guarantees. These commitments take effect long afterwards, particularly when difficulties arise.
We advise you on negotiating and securing your financing, and litigate against banks on liability, guarantees and recovery proceedings brought against you.
What we do
- Review and negotiation of loan and financing agreements
- Guarantees, mortgages, pledges and security interests
- Challenging interest, fees and terms applied
- Bank liability and breach of the duty to advise
- Defence against recovery or seizure proceedings
- Debt renegotiation and rescheduling
Frequently asked questions
Can I challenge the fees my bank charges?
Yes, when they do not match the agreed terms or were not properly disclosed to you. We audit your statements and contractual documents to identify what can be challenged.
I have given a personal guarantee: what are my risks?
They depend on the type of guarantee and how it is drafted, which can be very broad. We review your commitment, check its validity and whether the bank met its duty to inform you.
A seizure has been initiated against me: what should I do?
Act quickly, because the deadlines to challenge are short. We check that the procedure is lawful, challenge what can be challenged and, in parallel, negotiate a restructuring of the debt.
