About Diane

Lawyer with over 6 years of experience, I gradually specialized in insurance law after a career in law firms (real estate law, immigration law) and in handling property and casualty claims, with solid expertise in recourse actions - common law, contractual, and inter-insurance.
Holder of a Master's degree in Public Business Law from Sorbonne, I have been working since 2022 at La Médiation de l'Assurance, the national mediation body for the insurance sector, where I analyze complex cases involving insurance law, civil law, consumer law, and construction law.
This background has taught me to see situations from both sides: that of the insured and that of the insurer. It is this balanced perspective that I bring to my missions.
I am involved in:

- Analysis and interpretation of insurance contracts
- Drafting and revision of contractual clauses
- Support in insurer/insured disputes
- Audit of claims management processes
- Legal drafting (memos, letters, case studies)
- Training and awareness on insurance issues
