About us

Founded in 2004 by Mehdi Bennani (Attorney at Law, New York) and Abdellah Moustaid (Attorney at Law, Casablanca), the firm opened its first office in Morocco to advise its clients in their establishment and development projects in Francophone Africa. Ten years later, Bennani & Associés opened an office in Algiers to continue to assist its clients in Algeria.
