You’ll be part of a team of reputable experts working within a human-scale organisation. Our working practices and organisation encourage personal interaction and accountability, while bringing out the individual qualities of each team member. Our firm’s culture focuses on developing talent within a well-organised work environment.

We can offer you a new style of working. While other lawyers are becoming ever more specialised, our firm stands out as it continues to give staff the opportunity to take on a wide variety of roles within each of our departments . We feel that over-specialisation early on in an employee’s career can be detrimental to their training and work standards. We are also keen to encourage interaction between different departments so that our staff gain experience in a wide range of areas.

You can help us achieve our corporate goals. Our firm is expanding fast each day, driven by our staff’s motivation, ingenuity and corporate vision.

We place major emphasis on staff training and career development. Our success is underpinned by a comprehensive training programme and a career development philosophy that combines theoretical knowledge with hands-on training on a daily basis. The size and organisation of our teams is particularly well-suited to this objective and geared towards positive personal development.

Staff satisfaction is a key to our success. People are only productive if they enjoy their work. Everyday we strive to create a pleasant and motivating work environment so that all our staff feel at home and can fulfil their potential.

Nathalie Lastennet, Associate : 'After a first experience in a major English law firm, I wanted to join a dynamic law firm with a human dimension, which favours the development of a strong team spirit and allows us to get a diversified but specialised expertise within the same department. Joining Ayache, Salama & Associés is also the opportunity to work on significant matters requiring both legal expertise as well as good clients relationships skills'.

Caroline Champion Thiry, Associate: 'I had just qualified as an avocat and I had received some proposals from reputed law firms. However, I didn't hesitate to join the firm when I receive the offer : the first contact was excellent, cases seemed very interesting, and above all, the associates, even the junior ones, although part of a structured team, were very quickly involved and given responsibilities, in minor and major matters. Thus, from the beginning, I have been in direct relation with clients.'

Joanna Ghorayeb, a former associate of the Merger Acquisitions & Private Equity department is now Assistant District Attorney (substitut du Procureur) in Pontoise : 'Because Ayache, Salama & Associés  was a strong and subtle mix of high expectations, energy, challenge, global perspective and humanity. The firm offered the opportunity to take part in a professional project in which each lawyer, no matter his experience, could be and had to be involved as a driving force, whether it be with the clients or within the firm. It was also the assurance of working on matters allowing us to get high-standard expertise.'

Mathilde Defarges, former associate of the Competition & Distribution team has decided to become a lobbyist : ' It was love at first sight - I was turning down proposals of prestigious Anglo-Saxon law firms. Because the firm was a sum of strong personalities providing enough space for every one. Because despite the size and the technical nature of the cases, nobody was taking itself too seriously. Because the clients were more that that : partners and sometimes even friends. And above all, because going to work in the morning was a pleasure'.
