A French-American law firm in Paris
We cannot say enough to recommend Avocat Grégoire, Julia and her whole team. We began in pursuit of nationalité for my husband but when that became unrealistic we shifted to residence visas for both of us. This happened quickly and without issue. We found the whole office easy and pleasant to work with, very fair and reasonable in cost, knowledgeable and probably most importantly, honest, in explanations and expectations. We will continue to work with them.
This review for Avocat Grégoire and Julia, in particular, is long overdue. Julia and her team went above and beyond to secure a French passport for my brother and I. Our case was not a simple one - we were obtaining citizenship through a parent we have zero contact with - and yet, throughout the entire process, Julia was patient and kind and incredibly knowledgable. I can say with 100% certainty that, without her, we would not have our French passport today. Thankfully, I found her and we were able to get the job done. I am forever grateful to Julia and her team and absolutely recommend her to anyone interested in obtaining French citizenship or working through a legal matter in France, no matter how complicated or hopeless the situation may seem.
I’m so relieved to have found Julia and her team. Our situation was complicated and we were in way over our heads trying to sort things ourselves. They calmed us down, stepped us methodically through the process and our renewal was approved. The team was kind, pleasant, knowledgable, professional and effective. Un grand merci.
Julia and Hinal helped us through the visa application and validation process. They are wonderful to work with and the whole process went very smoothly! Super responsive. The know the process well and are able to contact the relevant services in case of any follow up questions. Should we ever need more help in this domain, I would not hesitate to call on Julia again and I strongly recommend her and her firm to you!
My dreams have finally come true! Born in S Korea, married a foreign born Frenchman now living in the US as naturalized US citizens.
When I reached out to Julia and her team, I had already tried to find a solution to become a French citizen but it felt daunting. Turned out, my hubby and I had done nothing to help my case but with deep patience across 3 governments and their bureaucracy, Julia Grégoire has made my dream of becoming a naturalized French citizen come true!
Detailed instructions each step of the way, each dossier carefully put together - I am excited to announce I will be sworn in this September! (Or whatever the French do in that ceremony) I am deeply grateful and I highly recommend Julia and her team for your complex French immigration needs!

Julia and her team were simply excellent, I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone who is looking for immigration or citizenship help in France. I engaged their assistance for my application for a CNF, and they were extremely efficient and knowledgeable about the process and the necessary family documents which needed to be presented in my application. My CNF was issued shortly after Julia and her team had submitted it on my behalf. I really appreciated their knowledge and professionalism, and would reach out to them immediately if I had any future citizenship issues in France.
I cannot recommend Julia Grégoire and her team highly enough! She helped my husband, who is French-American, with my French citizenship application, as well as with obtaining our son's French passport and CNF.
We are based in the U.S. and initially tried to do everything by ourselves during Covid quarantine when many vital records offices were closed. However, there were so many steps to the process, and due to sometimes encountering confusing and conflicting instructions on the French consulates' websites in the US, it soon became clear that we needed a lawyer.
And in walked Julia and her team! She walked us through every step in a clear and timely manner, and always with so much care, respect, and great energy. She handled the process of requesting vital records, and obtaining the necessary, and slow process of apostille, on both the French and US side.
I truly believe the success with my citizenship application, and with my son's passport and CNF application, would not have come together as relatively quickly as they did without her help! There is no way we would have put my application dossier together the way that she did, which ensured a really smooth process.
She counseled us in preparation for my consulate interview, and even after receiving notice of French citizenship, she continued helping us get to the finish line by having her office handle the logistics of making an appointment for me to get my French passport at the consulate, and putting the application together for that as well.
She even responded to a few official consulate questions as part of my application, on my behalf and of course with my permission. You really will not regret working with her, and when it comes to your citizenship application, you really should! Please do not try and do it by yourself. Working with Julia and her team is worth the investment!
Please note: We started working with Julia in February 2023, and continued working with her through the logistical finish line up until May 2024.

Julia and her team are fantastic! We have had nothing but great support and representation from them for what we needed for dual citizenship. The process is intensive and overwhelming we could not do it alone without their help. We were taken care of very well. Julia is resourceful, and communicative through the whole process. Nothing but positive things to say about the Avocat Grégoire team. Highly recommended!
Highly, highly recommend! Julia and everyone on her team were a pleasure to work with. They helped me and my family with a long and complicated process to obtain French passports. They were responsive and knowledgeable every step of the way. Thank you!
Julia and her team are extraordinary!!! Their work is intelligent and sophisticated. They went above and beyond to update my visa successfully. In my case, they did what I thought was impossible... I cannot recommend them enough and will forever be devoted to working with them. Julia made my dreams possible!
