OUR IDENTITY
The reason
we exist
Law can help us build a better future together.
Present-day societies are going through complex crises, and we believe that law is a powerful tool to face them, by transforming our changing economies, protecting the general interest, promoting inclusive economic projects and encouraging social and sustainable development in every territory.
DEMAIN is a human-scale and confidential multidisciplinary law practice based in Paris, engaged with its clients to structure and finance impact projects related to the development of territories in France, Africa and emerging countries. We are convinced that business law can no longer overlook economic, social and environmental issues regarding good governance and human rights.
Our raison d’être is to build bridges between the practice of business law and the defence of human rights, in order to promote a fairer world, economically sustainable and meaningful for everyone.
OUR IDENTITY
