Lawyers are, in essence, defenders of human rights. We already defend our clients and their rights in the courts. But our mission extends beyond the courts. In addition to our participation in the amicable resolution of disputes, through negotiation or mediation for example, other fields of activity are open to lawyers for the defense of human rights, this time outside the courts, within companies. This concerns missions entrusted to us by companies to help them comply with their duty of care.
