I help businesses, startups, entrepreneurs and freelancers draft, review and strengthen their legal documents with practical, business-focused legal solutions. Whether you need a contract drafted from scratch, an existing agreement reviewed, or key clauses strengthened to better protect your business, my goal is simple: deliver documents that are legally robust, commercially practical and tailored to your specific needs. I am a bilingual (French/English) legal professional with experience gained in international law firms, multinational companies, judicial institutions and corporate legal departments. Throughout my career, I have worked on a wide range of commercial contracts, compliance matters and cross-border legal issues, combining technical legal analysis with a pragmatic understanding of business objectives. How I can help Commercial Contracts: - Service Agreements - Partnership Agreements - Distribution & Supplier Agreements - Consultancy, Subcontracting & Independent Contractor Agreements - Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) Contract Review & Risk Assessment: - Legal review of existing contracts - Redlining and contract markups - Clause-by-clause improvements - Legal risk identification - Business-oriented recommendations Digital Business & Compliance: - Terms & Conditions - Privacy Policies - GDPR Compliance - Website Legal Notices - End User License Agreements (EULAs) Legal Research: - Commercial Law - European Union Law - International Business Law - Arbitration - Compliance (AML/CFT & Data Protection) One of my strengths is my ability to work across different legal frameworks, including French civil law, European Union law and common law-inspired contractual drafting. This enables me to adapt contracts for both domestic and international business relationships while ensuring they remain clear, practical and enforceable. I place particular emphasis on drafting contracts that do more than simply comply with the law. Every document is tailored to the client's operational reality, commercial objectives and specific legal risks. Rather than relying on generic templates, I focus on producing agreements that are practical, balanced and designed to prevent disputes before they arise. Clients appreciate my responsiveness, attention to detail and structured approach. I believe good legal drafting should protect your business while remaining clear, commercially realistic and easy to use in practice. If you're looking for reliable legal support to draft, review or improve your contracts, I'd be happy to discuss your project.

A Master of Laws (LL.M.) and a 15-year career as a professional athlete. This combination defines my work approach: - ​I offer a solid academic foundation backed by a proven Upwork experience. - I am conditioned to perform under pressure, meet hard deadlines, and work seamlessly in multicultural teams. ​Key Achievement: I independently managed and resolved a complex labor dispute in France (pre-litigation). I navigated the Code du Travail, drafted formal claims, and negotiated a settlement without a lawyer. This proves I can handle formal procedures with absolute autonomy. ​I am based in France (CET Timezone) and offer two distinct service lines: 1. Paralegal Support & Legal Drafting Aligned with my LL.M. profile. I handle substantive legal tasks that require deep analysis rather than simple administration. Capabilities: Contract analysis, regulatory research (EU/International), drafting formal claims, and preparing court forms. Whether it involves complex research or routine correspondence, I ensure 100% human verification and lawyer-grade precision. 2. Native Russian Translation & Technical LQA I combine legal accuracy with technical adaptability to ensure your message is culturally correct and technically sound. Capabilities: Legal translation (Contracts/LOIs), Game Localization/LQA (preserving variables/tags), and AI Data Training. I successfully delivered a 36k-word project with a 5-star rating, ensuring zero context errors and full code integrity. ​If your project demands this level of resourcefulness and accountability, let's connect.
