What sets
us apart
Our firm takes its name from our commitment to providing clients with an agile, passionate and dedicated multidisciplinary team. Unlike large firms where your contact changes from one matter to the next, at Squadra, your points of contact are the partners themselves.
What makes us strong is the combination of first-rate technical expertise — recognised by Chambers, Legal 500, Decideurs — and a deep understanding of the operational challenges businesses face. We do not merely answer a legal question: we bring an entrepreneurial, strategic perspective, focused on solutions.
Our international outlook gives us enhanced agility and understanding of multicultural issues. S&P 500 groups, international investment funds and leading technology companies trust us to support them on their most sensitive matters.
"Attentiveness, availability and dialogue are the foundations of a lasting collaboration."

Our values
Boldness
We do not hesitate to take new paths when our clients' interests demand it. Legal innovation is at the heart of our practice.
Rigour
Every analysis, every piece of advice, every document is the result of thorough work. We never compromise on quality.
Tenacity
In litigation as in advisory work, we defend our clients' positions with determination and without concession.
Attentiveness
Understanding before advising. Availability and dialogue are the foundations of our collaboration.
