Gide Loyrette Nouel

"Christophe Eck, a senior partner at GIDE, says that the French law firm will remain active in Iran regardless of Trump’s decision to withdraw from the Iran nuclear deal." (June 17, 2018). (http://www.tehrantimes.com/news/423734/French-law-firm-to-stay-in-Iran-whatever-fate-of-JCPOA)

"The Islamic Republic of Iran is the second largest economy in the MENA region, and its legal system, based on Sharia principles, also borrows much from the French commercial code and company law. Gide is the first international law firm to obtain a licence in order to open a branch office and practise in Iran under its own name. Our firm has been advising and assisting clients in Iran for many years on their investments, acquisitions, BOT (Build Operate Transfer) transactions, various commercial agreements, international arbitration and embargo regulations."
