Erwan advises international and domestic companies in complex commercial, civil, and criminal disputes, from the prelitigation stages of a matter, including alternative dispute resolution methods, to Court trials.

A general litigator, Erwan notably advises in the areas of banking and finance litigation, where his experience includes liability claims against banks, financial services and investment funds; corporate litigation, including disputes between majority and minority shareholders, disputes related to shareholding agreements as well as representations and warranties.
