Audit Duprey Fekl is pleased to announce that David Chekroun has joined the firm as a Partner.

A Professor of Business Law at ESCP Business School, David brings recognized expertise in corporate governance and strategic international projects.

He advises large corporations, mid-cap companies, and private equity funds — as well as their boards, executive teams, and shareholders — on their most sensitive decisions. His practice covers the full range of issues related to corporate governance structures, management liability, conflict-of-interest prevention, shareholder disputes, and foreign investment control.

Mathias Audit, Pierre Duprey, and Matthias Fekl commented: “David’s arrival further strengthens our ability to support companies navigating an ever-changing economic and geopolitical environment.”

Mathias Audit added: “David combines academic depth with practical insight. Our clients will benefit from his ability to translate strategic analysis into effective, concrete solutions, particularly in matters involving foreign investment control.”

Pierre Duprey noted: “David is an exceptional lawyer whose entire approach focuses on helping businesses manage complex risks and reduce potential exposure to disputes.”

Matthias Fekl commented: “We are delighted to welcome David, whose expertise will enhance our strategic advisory practice for business leaders — especially in negotiated approaches to conflict management and proactive risk anticipation in today’s uncertain environment.”

David Chekroun said: “Joining Audit Duprey Fekl was an obvious choice. The firm is French, independent, and truly collegiate. It brings together exceptional individuals: Mathias, a gifted academic and strategic thinker; Pierre, a rigorous arbitrator with an exemplary reputation; and Matthias, an outstanding lawyer with a broad public and political vision. Beyond these remarkable profiles, ADF is a cohesive team of partners and associates united by competence, diversity, and a shared commitment to excellence. I am delighted to contribute to developing the firm’s practice in corporate governance and sensitive international matters.”
