Immigration Services in Nice, France

French immigration law shapes the lives of those who come to settle: the expatriate executive on assignment on the French Riviera, the visiting researcher, the entrepreneur founding a company in France, the retiree looking for a base in the Alpes-Maritimes, the graduate from a French grande école searching for a first contract. Procedures — visa, residence permit, work authorisation, family reunification, naturalisation — require both the right choice of legal status upstream and a precisely run file.

Our law practice is based in Nice and registered with the Alpes-Maritimes Bar. We support an international clientele across these procedures, from planning through litigation. Paula Rocha, lawyer at the Nice Bar, practises in French, English, Portuguese and Spanish.
