Dominique Doise

Dominique Doise co-leads our Banking & Insurance team with Ludovic Gayral and Valérie Mayer.

His ability to understand the purpose of banking transactions and to grasp the risk-analysis dimension of the banking profession enable him to approach issues with a global vision that goes beyond the legal framework.

The firm’s practice, which is mainly focused on French and foreign credit institutions, is balanced between litigation and advisory services:

• Banking liability and litigation with respect to trade finance instruments (documentary credits, independent guarantees…) for which Dominique has obtained numerous decisions, published and commented upon, that have determined or allowed an evolution in case law,
• Financing transactions of all types and mainly those linked to trade finance or relating to investments and implementation of guarantees pertaining to such transactions
• Setting up and drafting, on behalf of credit institutions, “standard” and specific contractual documentation, including terms and conditions and framework agreements relating to the issuance of guarantees, documentary credits and stand-by letters of credit, backing of documentary credits, silent confirmation of documentary credits

Dominique is also active in the field of general commercial litigation, both judicial and arbitral.

Dominique joined Vatier in January 2020. He previously practised with the law firms Slaughter & May, ASA, Alérion, of which he was a founder, and Adamas.
