We can meet clients directly in N’Djamena, although our home office is in Geneva, Switzerland, and we are always accessible to clients, regardless of their location, by videoconference. Our Chad Arbitration Lawyers Desk has access to Chadian jurisprudence and doctrine, while speaking French and English fluently.
