DLA Piper and the French Civil Code Reform

The French Civil Code, enacted over two centuries ago, has remained unchanged since 1804. In February 2015, new legislation aimed at modernising the law was introduced and it became imperative that a comprehensive review of the reforms was conducted. As a thought leader, DLA Piper formed a working group with legal think tank, Cercle Montesquieu, in order to analyse, educate, inform and guide businesses through this revolution in French contract law.
