WHY DO YOU NEED AN INDEPENDANT LEGAL ADVICE WHEN YOU PURCHASE YOUR DREAM HOME ?Because the purchasing process is very different from that in the United Kingdom or the United States, Canada, etc... It is more protective in some ways, slower too, but it involves commitments by the purchaser much earlier on in the process. Because only a lawyer who has in-depth knowledge of the property market may guide you to obtain all the information available on the property that you wish to buy and so help you to make an offer at the market price.Because none of those involved in the purchase (seller, estate agent, notary) is devoted only to defending the interests of the purchaser. Because if you do not speak French fluently and if you do not know the legal terminology you will not understand what you are actually committing yourself to. Not understanding what you are committing yourself to may have serious consequences, such as for example losing your deposit, not qualifying for a loan, having to spend heavily after your purchase  (such as for example not being able to dispose of land)

Laure Chaveron is a brilliant lawyer. She speaks fluent English and fluent French law. Our property purchase was one of those strange, confusing situations that arises from divided estates and unusual property status. It took most of a year. There were maps to be drawn, encumbrances to be removed, notaries quitting, Covid-19…every sort of obstacle. I’d have given up. But she knew what to do in all circumstances.
