The DUTA & Associates law firm consists of a team of experienced and dedicated professionals. With a main office in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and a secondary office in Paris, we assist our clients in both disputes before the Luxembourg courts and the French courts.

We are committed to providing high-level legal services to our clients. Very concerned with respecting ethics, we scrupulously ensure respect for the values ​​of humanity and ethics. We are aware that our clients entrust us with sensitive matters which deserve a rigorously ethical and humane approach.

Whether you are a business or an individual, we are available to help you. With a generalist vocation, the firm has the advantage of mastering complete legal issues. It is not uncommon for a dispute to sometimes involve the intersection of several branches of law. For example, a family law or labor law dispute may well have a civil aspect and a criminal aspect. The firm is able to provide comprehensive assistance on all aspects of the dispute. Accustomed to international disputes, we are able to intervene both in Luxembourg and in France, mastering conflicts of law and the rules of jurisdiction.

The firm is also a member of the international network of lawyers "LAWROPE - International lawyers network", which allows it to have a network of law firms in numerous countries to handle cases presenting transnational legal issues.
