LEGALYS

LEGALYS is a multi-jurisdictional law firm that positions itself as "The French leader in the Indian Ocean in corporate litigation and legal and tax advice." Established in 2023 through the merger of two established practices, YSyS and G&P LEGAL, it operates with 4 partners and their respective teams across offices in Mauritius (Ebene City), La Réunion, and Mayotte, providing coordinated legal services throughout these French territories and key regional markets.
LEGALYS maintains a broad practice encompassing both corporate and litigation services, with its Mauritius office benefiting from dual expertise in French and Mauritian law. This dual capability is particularly relevant given that Mauritian contract law is essentially governed by the Mauritian Civil Code and therefore by French legal principles.
The firm's practice areas span corporate litigation, legal and tax advisory services, contract law and commercial disputes, employment law, insolvency and restructuring, criminal litigation, and public service delegations. The firm maintains active involvement in the French business community in Mauritius, holding membership in the French Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Mauritius. Additionally, the firm demonstrates community leadership through Olivier’s appointment as the President of French Citizens Abroad in Mauritius, representing the most significant association of French expatriates in the jurisdiction.
