Mauritian legal services for French clients
Mauritian property, family and succession matters can cross borders quickly. The first task is to separate the Mauritian question from advice needed in France.
the Mauritian question
Acting for French nationals in Mauritius
A Mauritian matter may sit beside assets, family or obligations in France. Each jurisdiction’s question should be identified before advice is coordinated.
Me Mokshda Pertaub’s qualifications include LLM (France). She has been at the Mauritian Bar since 1998 and is a former Director of the Institute for Judicial and Legal Studies, appointed January 2017.
Buying as a non-citizen
A non-citizen purchase may require Economic Development Board approval. Its timing belongs to the authority. Independent property advice should begin before signature.
Succession and family
Mauritian succession is considered under the Code Civil Mauricien. French advice remains distinct. Family matters also begin with the marriage, residence and any immediate concern.

Questions from French clients
Does Mauritian law govern my property here?
Mauritian law governs immovable property here, with succession considered under the Code Civil Mauricien. French assets require separate advice. Your documents determine how the positions meet.
Can proceedings be conducted while I am in France?
Many steps can be prepared remotely. Attendance and original-document requirements depend on the proceeding. Individual advice begins with your papers and dates.
