Before becoming a lawyer, Daphnée worked for ten years as a legal counsel for online banks (Oney Bank, Cofidis S.A.).
Daphnée then went on to practise as a lawyer in Nice for two international business law firms. She advised the start-ups of the Sophia Antipolis technopole from their initial stage to their large fundraising stage by ensuring the legal protection of their innovations. She then decided to join the Lille Bar to launch her own law firm.
Daphnée passed a master’s degree in IT law and has worked within the “IP/IT-contracts & competition law” department of a Big Four where she continued to specialise herself in business law. She can advise you in the drafting and negotiation of contracts relating to the protection and distribution of innovative products (copyright transfer contracts, patent licenses, etc). She can also assist you with your legal issues regarding competition law and sales distribution contracts.
Daphnée is also a referent before the French National Institute of Industrial Property (INPI). She can advise companies regarding the filing of their brands and logos in France, Europe and abroad. She performs audits of intellectual property rights allowing the valuation of your intangible assets, in the context of fundraising or a Merger & Acquisition.
Due to her experience with banks for which the provisions relating to the protection of customer data are reinforced by bank secrecy and are particularly restrictive, Daphnée has developed a particular expertise in data protection law and can ensure your company’s compliance with the GDPR.
