He began his career within a criminal law firm before working as a specialised assistant to the Judge heading the 15th Chamber of the Paris Court of Appeal (banking and financial litigation). He also spent several years ‘in house’ within the Global Litigation department of BNP Paribas and led the “Criminal Proceedings and Regulatory Enforcement” team of the Group prior to joining the firm, in 2014.
 
Dan specialises in financial litigation and enforcement work (circa 20 years of experience) with a strong focus on large scale and complex civil, white-collar crime or regulatory enforcement matters involving banking and financial services institutions (credit institutions, asset managers, depositories, investments firms, payment service providers, e-money institutions, etc.), large issuers and their top-level managers. He represents clients before all French civil and criminal courts, and assists them in the context of investigations and proceedings initiated by French and EU regulatory agencies.
 
The bulk of Dan’s practice is to deal with threats, litigation and investigations revolving around banking and financial mis-selling allegations, market abuses, financial crime (money laundering and terrorist financing, anti-bribery and corrupt practices, sanctions and embargoes, fraud), tax-related offences, unfair commercial practices, and more generally around the professional duties and conduct rules imposed on either supervised or listed entities, as well as on their top-level management. He has also developed a significant experience and an impressive track-record in defending large institutions facing French class actions and more generally the largest collective claims brought in France to date.
