Fieldfisher bolsters employment practices in Paris with French Boutique hires

Fieldfisher has added a partner and another lawyer to its labor law firm in Paris, bolstering its team amid an increased workload due in part to increased M&A deals in the French capital.

Julia Mohamed joins as a partner of the French boutique firm Marvell Avocats, where she practiced for eight years, becoming a partner.

Jérôme So, also from Marvell, joins Fieldfisher as a partner.
