Valerie Boisgard, LLM ’15
Employer: Partner and Member of BOISGARD Law Office, Paris

Valérie is a French attorney and a member of the Paris Bar since March 1999, specializing in white collar crimes and press law. She graduated from the Paris II University, Robert Schuman Strasbourg III University and the Institute of Criminology of Paris. Her interest in comparative law which was reflected in her choice of essays (“Surrogate motherhood in German, English and French Law” and “Is the Internet a vehicle for criminal irresponsibility?”) naturally led her to apply to the Washington University School of Law online program for foreign lawyers in 2013. She graduated with the first cohort in 2015.

After 20 years working with the G.W. Goldnadel Law office as a senior attorney, Valérie created her own law firm in Paris in 2019. She plans on opening a secondary office in Nice. In the context of a growing movement in favor of criminalization of business law, she counsels and represents business leaders in contractual or statutory situations that could potentially present a criminal risk. As a trial attorney, she has been involved in sensitive and high-profile cases such as the “Angolate” (also known as the Mitterrand-Pasqua affair), the Clearstream Scandal or the Elysée Poll trial. As a criminal attorney, Valérie also represents victims before criminal courts and, in particular, the parents and brother of the first individual killed in the terrorist attack of January 2015.

Valérie is member of the “Association des avocats pénalistes” (Association of Criminal Lawyers) The Association fights for respect for individual freedoms and against any attack on fundamental principles and any infringement of the rights of the defense that may result, in particular, from the enactment or application of the law and regulatory texts in France.

These goals can be summed up in this sentence “Every woman, every man deserves to be understood. To be a lawyer is to move from the abstraction of this evidence to the reality, often disturbing, but always fascinating, of the truth of beings.” Hervé Témime, founding member and first president of the association.

Valérie is also a donor member of the association “Toutes à l’école” (All [girls] at school). Faced with the observation that more than half of the world’s out-of-school children are girls, the association offers high-level schooling to the most disadvantaged Cambodian girls in order to lead them to a profession that will bring them freedom and dignity. The care of the pupils is comprehensive: education, food, and medical follow-up (general medicine, vaccinations, dental and ophthalmological care). Support is also provided to families. The level of education of girls is a sign of a country’s degree of freedom and democracy.

Valérie helped to create the Chamber orchestra of the Paris Bar in 1999 where she was a founding member until 2022. This orchestra mainly composed of lawyers played several concerts and merged twice with the London Lawyers’ music for concerts in London and Paris. Valérie’s hobbies aside from violin playing in the Melun Val de Seine Regional Orchestra include riding and diving.
