Fast answers to your French law questions
The French legal system is based on civil law. The definition of civil law is a legal system where the core principles and laws are codified, as opposed to the English system where law is based on precedents set in previous cases.
French civil law is divided into two branches, public and private law. Disputes between individuals are covered under private law, while French employment law is part of public law.
The French legal system is complex, and sometimes you need the help of an expert to help you make sense of your rights and responsibilities. If you have questions involving French law, such as French employment law, you can save the time and expense of visiting a French lawyer by asking the legal experts on JustAnswer. You can even ask follow-up questions, and approve payment only when you’re completely satisfied.
