Mathilde has over 20 years of experience representing English and German-speaking clients in a broad range of employment and labor-related litigation matters. She regularly counsels HR managers of global companies on their most important and sensitive employment issues. She has extensive experience advising employers with respect to matters arising out of re-organizations (down-sizing, closing of plants, business transfers, international and national mobility) as well as matters involving corporate policies, employment discrimination, whistleblower claims, breach of contract and wrongful termination claims, internal investigations, or mandatory working hours. Mathilde represents clients in labour courts, civil courts, criminal courts and administrative courts. Mathilde’s clients come from all sectors of the global economy, including the automotive, pharmaceutical, chemical, mining, advertising, e-commerce, and luxury goods industries. Mathilde's dual French-American education enables her to represent Anglo-Saxon companies in a global environment, thanks to a pragmatic approach focused on the economic stakes at hand and on solutions that fit into the social strategy of the company. Her excellent knowledge of the German language and German culture also led her to deal with French-German cross-border cases. Mathilde earned a Master Degree in Paris, an LL.M. from Duke University, N.C., U.S.A., and is admitted to practice in Paris and New York.
