UGGC Africa is a subsidiary of UGGC Avocats, a multidisciplinary law firm providing its clients with a unique combination of expertise and skills. Created in 1993, UGGC Avocats has quickly established itself as one of the first independent law firms in France.

The firm makes the needs of its clients and legal excellence a top priority. Always attentive to its clients’ needs and based on its values and knowledge, UGGC Avocats has replicated it business model by setting up offices in strategic areas for French industry.

With offices in 4 geographical areas (Europe, Africa, Asia and Latin America) and network of first tier correspondents, UGGC guarantees its clients an efficient international intervention capacity.

OUR HISTORY

OUR HISTORY

In December 2002, UGGC Avocats created a subsidiary office in Casablanca. It was one of the first French law firms to set up an office in Morocco in order to develop a pan-African legal and tax advisory platform. The Moroccan office has since become one of the foremost international law firms in Africa intervening regularly in Morocco but also in Algeria, Tunisia as well as in Sub-Saharan, West and Central Africa.

In 2014, the firm also opened an “Africa Desk” in Paris – always with the aim of remaining close to its European clients. The Desk consists of lawyers in the Paris office who are perfectly knowledgeable in OHADA law so that our European clients have a contact close-at-hand in Paris.

In 2021, the name of the subsidiary in Morocco changed to UGGC Africa to emphasize the firm’s African presence and ambitions. The same year, UGGC Africa has considerably grown by developing its networks in both Cameroon and Ivory Coast.

For more than 20 years, UGGC Africa is accompanying its clients in their investment projects in Africa. It is offering them a wide range of expertise covering all areas of law, with a level of practice that meets the highest standards of the profession. Furthermore, UGGC Africa is working in Arabic, English and French.
