In the absence of harmonisation at the European level, commercial leases still remain a matter with very distinct national contours. For practitioners handling cross-border situations, a detailed understanding of the specific legal features of each country is essential.

The second edition of “Le bail commercial - Analyse comparée Belgique, France, Luxembourg, Suisse” offers a structured and up-to-date analysis of the regimes applicable in these four countries, through a cross-reading by recognised specialists in each of these legal systems.

Beyond the differences, the book highlights points of convergence, while shedding light on recent developments in legislation and case law.

Our Legal Director, Michael Lepper, is the author of the Swiss section, which has just been published.
