How we support you
As the Kingdom's administrative capital, Rabat is home to the ministries, the headquarters of the main public bodies, the Court of Cassation and a full set of first-instance and appeal courts. The firm is based here, in the heart of the Agdal district.
Rabat hosts the ministries, public institutions, embassies and many company headquarters. Cases here often combine administrative law, public procurement, civil service and business law, a few minutes from the firm.
Every commercial law and debt recovery case follows the same method: a confidential first meeting, analysis of the applicable law (Commercial Code, Law 53-95 (Commercial Courts)), a costed strategy with a fee agreement, then action before the Rabat Court of First Instance or the relevant public authority.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions on commercial law and debt recovery
How do I recover an unpaid debt in Morocco?
After a formal notice sent by registered letter or through a bailiff, a creditor holding a written document (accepted invoice, contract, cheque, acknowledgement of debt) can apply to the judge for a payment order (art. 155 et seq. of the Code of Civil Procedure), a fast and inexpensive procedure. Without a written document, proceedings on the merits must be brought.
What is the limitation period for commercial debts?
Obligations arising between traders, or between traders and non-traders in the course of their trade, are time-barred after five years (art. 5 of the Commercial Code), unless shorter special provisions apply.
Can the firm act for clients from Rabat?
Yes. The firm, based in Agdal, in the heart of the capital, pleads before the Rabat Court of First Instance and the competent courts of the Kingdom, in accordance with the judicial organisation. Meetings take place at the firm or by video call.
