The philosophy of DOLLA-VIAL is to be part of the internal logic and external strategy of the company’s management, bringing its customers its operational and pragmatic approach:

• Offering the best legal certainty means maximizing the potential for development.

The Department of Social Law intervenes in both advisory and litigation activities (Council of The Prud’men, Court of High Instance, Court of Instance, Court of Social Security Affairs, criminal courts).

The department covers all social law with particular experience in the following areas:

Employment contract, dismissal, collective negotiations, representative staff institutions, corporate restructuring, employment safeguard plans, working hours, social protection law, participation, interest, stock options, USSRAF and CPAM litigation, secondment and expatriation of employees…

Criminal labour law is also an acquired know-how made available to the Directorates General and Human Resources Directorates, which use the Cabinet for sensitive matters.

In addition to these activities, the social law department works closely with the other departments of the Cabinet, in particular, in the acquisition and restructuring of companies as well as in the establishment of foreign companies in France.

DOLLA-VIAL has consistently regarded this area of intervention not as a minor ancillary activity but as a real specific know-how that, combined with a high-performance IT tool, allows its customers to provide a service with high added value: to recover as efficiently as possible and at the lowest cost the sums earned due to them.

The specific department created within it follows in particular the recovery of contributions, condominium and rent charges, unpaid commercial bills, on behalf of French and foreign institutions.

More than three thousand collection files are opened annually, making DOLLA-VIAL one of the most active law firms in this area.

To this end, and to combine speed, security and profitability, DOLLA-VIAL has constituted a bible of specific and very comprehensive acts relating both to purely judicial acts (assignments to all types of courts, conclusions, requests), as well as to letters intended for the usual interlocutors of this type of file (letters of placement of subpoenas, sending of conclusions, sending of pleading files, orders of K Bis , letters of sending subpoenas, judgments, orders for provisional seizure, letters of receipt of files, letters of sending of subpoenas and conclusions, letters of information of hearings, sending judgments, requests for documents and observations, invoices for fees, etc.).

Implementing this specific know-how, DOLLA-VIAL has developed a processing software specific to this department, and created an intranet system with one of its customers, optimizing the speed and security of the information transmitted, and promoting the reduction of costs through the gradual dematerialization of the collection files entrusted.

One of the characteristics of DOLLA-VIAL is that each partner, in each field, has focused on developing equal control over advice and litigation.

DOLLA-VIAL believes that:

• There is no good advice without mastery of litigation risk: this mastery requires procedural competence and a desire to fight… And only the lawyer who knows how to fight is taken seriously in a transactional phase.
• But, there is no profitable litigation for the client without the parallel and constant search for a well-negotiated solution.

This is why, beyond its negotiating practice, the firm has developed a competence in mediation.

But DOLLA-VIAL also knows that winning a case for a client is not necessarily enough, you have to be able to execute the court decision obtained… This is why monitoring and executing decisions is an important service that DOLLA-VIAL provides to its customers.

DOLLA-VIAL is also one of the first firms in the area of foreclosure.

DOLLA-VIAL has specialized in real estate law since its inception. He has developed an efficiency that is based on the combination of his proven procedural competence and his knowledge of the field in all areas of real estate law.

DOLLA-VIAL is involved in real estate development, property management and urban planning, as well as related litigation.

Its areas of privileged intervention are:

• Construction: construction contracts, contractor assistance, project management delegation, project management, real estate development…
• Management: commercial leases (negotiation, conclusion, rent fixing in renewal, eviction), professional and residential leases, various occupancy agreements.
• The law of co-ownership and foreclosures, materials exercised by DOLLA-VIAL for more than thirty years…

In a society where criminal liability of individuals and corporations is increasingly sought after, a firm serving companies and individuals alike must advise and defend them in criminal matters.

Our firm is therefore anxious to be as close as possible to its clients at every stage of the criminal proceedings. This local assistance allows a fair appreciation of the penalties incurred, responsibilities, prejudices and reparations.

The dual experience of defending both civil and defendants gives us complete competence and is particularly beneficial to our clients.

• Negotiating and drafting public procurement,

• Public procurement litigation,
