Laurent also served for eight years as an advocate general, with dozens of his opinions published in law reviews. In addition, he served as an advisor to several ministries and public agencies, and spent two years as chief of staff of a minister, where he led the conception and drafting of legislative bills and administrative orders.
“Laurent brings a deep understanding of how the French regulatory authorities consider both transactions and disputes based on two decades of distinguished government service.
