Vey & Associés

Vey & Associés is a leading law firm specializing in criminal defense, extradition cases, international mutual assistance, reputation protection and individual freedoms

With a heritage deeply rooted in traditional criminal defense, we are proud to be one of the most active litigation firms in France, and to have acquired an international reputation, particularly in the French-speaking world.

 

Our experience and expertise are recognized in a very wide range of contentious situations, which cover all types of matter involving investigations and litigation with judicial or administrative bodies or institutions  from criminal courts to the financial markets authority, from referral to United Nations committees to political-financial affairs.

 

We are mandated by individuals, companies, international institutions and governments in nearly fifty countries.

 

We believe that everyone has the right to defend themselves effectively, regardless of their resources or the seriousness of the acts with which they are accused. Thus, we intervene in both high-profile cases and smaller cases, whenever we believe we can make a difference.

 

Far from offering ready-made approaches, our approach is to analyze the environment(s), whether legal, financial or media coverage, of each case, offering our clients pragmatic strategies and access to all the resources necessary for the effective conduct of their litigation. Our team was precisely designed not to be an addition of individuals, but a commando-like approach in the service of defense.

 

We have an office in Paris, the heart of our criminal defense activity, and Geneva which specializes in matters of international law, judicial cooperation and complex litigation (involving several disciplines, in several jurisdictions). ). As such, we are regularly mandated to create and coordinate ad hoc teams on sensitive subjects that require a global organization.
