5 June 2007 - The Casablanca, Algiers and Tunis offices of Gide Loyrette Nouel are strengthening their PPP / Construction / Large-scale Projects Team:
Gide Loyrette Nouel is pleased to announce that Hugues de La Forge is joining the Casablanca Office as a senior associate to strengthen the Firm's North African legal teams specialising in PPP, construction and large-scale projects.
He will be based in Casablanca, handling client matters involving North Africa in conjunction with the Algiers and Tunis Offices and in co-operation with the Paris Office Project Finance, Construction and Real Estate teams.
Hugues spent more than 9 years working for Bouygues Construction both as a lawyer for the public works subsidiary (1998-2004) and then as assistant to the Director of Legal Affairs for the Bâtiment International entity (2005-2006). He has a postgraduate degree (DEA) in public law from the University of Paris V (1996) and lectured public law at Cairo University (1996-1997).
Hicham Naciri, the partner responsible for the Casablanca Office, said: "we are delighted that such an experienced lawyer is joining our team. Hughes' expertise will strengthen and consolidate our existing skills, especially in the area of large-scale tourism projects in which we are so actively involved."
The Casablanca Office has recently been advising major developers and investment funds (including the US corporation, Colony Capital; the South-African group, Kerzner International; Diar, based in Qatar; the Egyptian group, Orascom Hotels Development; etc.) on their development of residential and holiday complexes in Morocco.
The Algiers and Tunis Offices act for numerous international companies involved in large-scale tourism and infrastructure projects (the Chinese entities CITIC and CRCC with regard to the building of the east-west highway in Algeria; a major United Arab Emirates investor in Tunisia, etc.).
Gide Loyrette Nouel is the only international law firm to be based in 3 North African countries.
