About us

Located in the heart of Paris (France) in a historical building dating back to the 17th century and in the immediate vicinity of the Paris Law Courts (and also easily connected to the French Patent, Trademark and Design Office – INPI), MANDEL – ASSOCIES is a French and international law firm focusing on business, company and labor law, on the one hand, and on the other on intellectual property law and IT law.

Founded in 1977 by Mr. Aimé MANDEL, admitted to both the Paris Bar and the California Bar, MANDEL – ASSOCIES has a permanent staff of three lawyers and their assistant all perfectly fluent in English, French and Spanish, which allows our attorneys to develop a close working relationship with our clients and an understanding of their business needs.

Since its inception, our firm has been able to successfully represent large international corporations and to deal with complex legal files.

The partners of MANDEL – ASSOCIES were educated and worked in the United States. Our lawyers have experience and substantive expertise which has allowed us to represent throughout the years American universities, Japanese public agencies, manufacturers, banks and insurance companies, as well as well known French clients.

Lately, we have considerably developed our intellectual property law practice and we offer our clients a full range of services, including IP litigation before all French Courts and filings of trademarks and designs in the entire European Community (OHIM, WIPO and INPI, France).
