A Dual Lens. Legal and Strategic.
A/PCD Law is a business law firm built on one conviction: the best legal counsel is counsel grounded in the client's operational reality.
Beyond legal— what it means in practice
01
Decision
Counsel calibrated to real stakes, not theoretical compliance. At the core of decisions, not on the periphery.
02
Responsibility
Taking a position on grey areas, difficult trade-offs, acceptable risks. That is the work.
03
Ancrage
Counsel who knows your structure, your market, your stakeholders doesn't start from scratch on every matter.
founder
Ambre Perrochaud
Attorney at the Paris Bar
My career followed a deliberate path. From M&A and Private Equity practice at leading international firms — Cleary Gottlieb, Latham & Watkins — to serving as Legal Director M&A and Financing at Banijay Group (2018–2022), I learned to work alongside decision-makers.
Career
Reading business constraints. Understanding business plans to better structure business models. Assessing leverage before entering a negotiation. This dual lens — legal and strategic, transactional and operational — is what I bring to A/PCD Law.
