The new status highlights an excellent career to date within Gide. Each candidate was unanimously backed by his or her practice group, received individual sponsorship, and was approved by a commission comprising four partners. The Management Committee has awarded the Counsel status for an initial period of three years.
Partner Emmanuel Vital-Durand, member of the firm's Management Committee, says: “On behalf of all the partners, I would like to congratulate these young lawyers, who are among the most promising we have at Gide. I would also like to thank them warmly for their daily commitment in the service of our clients.”
