Hervé TEMIME (1957 – 2023)

In 1979, Her­vé TEMIME set his firm as soon as he was regis­te­red to the bar. He very qui­ck­ly gai­ned an illus­trious repu­ta­tion in nume­rous pro­cee­dings before the Assize Court (the court which hears cri­mi­nal cases). For 44 years he has been reco­gni­sed as a spe­cia­list in the cri­mi­nal defence of indi­vi­duals and legal enti­ties, in the fields of both gene­ral cri­mi­nal law and cri­mi­nal busi­ness law. He has defen­ded indi­vi­duals invol­ved in nume­rous sen­si­tive mat­ters, as well as liti­ga­tion pro­cee­dings with high-stakes issues. He has also defen­ded fel­low lawyers before judi­cial and pro­fes­sio­nal bodies.
He is the author of La défense dans la peau (Stock, 2012).

Her­vé TEMIME has also car­ried out various func­tions connec­ted to his legal activity.
He was the Pre­mier Secré­taire de la Confé­rence du Stage [Lau­reate of a com­pe­ti­tion of young lawyers] of the Ver­sailles Bar in 1980.
In 1991 he foun­ded the Asso­cia­tion Des Avo­cats Péna­listes [Asso­cia­tion of Lawyers Spe­cia­li­sed in Cri­mi­nal Defence] (of which he is still Hono­ra­ry Pre­sident) and was for­mer­ly a mem­ber of the Conseil de l’Ordre [Bar Coun­cil] (AMCO) bet­ween 1999 and 2002. He has publi­shed two books : La défense dans la peau (Stock, 2012) and Secret défense (Gal­li­mard, 2020).
