Founded in Paris in 1920, Gide is a leading international law firm with 12 offices spread throughout the world.
Gide is physically present in six regions of the world, with 11 offices, enabling it to act on cases globally.
Established in Morocco since 2003, Gide announced in October 2014 its union with Cuatrecasas, Gonçalves Pereira, a leading law firm in Spain and Portugal, in order to group together in a single structure their high-level skills in all fields of international and Moroccan business law. This union thus consolidates our position in North Africa, and in sub-Saharan Africa, where Gide is particularly active. It also takes place in the context of our European network, which comprises two other leading law firms in their respective countries: Chiomenti in Italy and Gleiss Lutz in Germany.
The inauguration will take place on Monday 14 September 2015 at the Villa des Arts in Casablanca, in the presence of:
