Education

Building the Future Today

Because education is the foundation of sustainable development, Desfilis actively supports the Centre Damien de Molokaï in Benin, whose mission is to provide children with a nurturing and enriching learning environment.

Through a dynamic educational approach, class sizes limited to 25 students, and strong engagement in sports and cultural activities, the Cité Saint Damien now welcomes 150 pupils, along with a summer activity center led each year by young volunteers.

Our firm is proud to contribute to the delivery of high-quality education by helping finance new buildings and equipment. Each year, members of the firm come together to raise funds for this initiative by taking part in the Foulée Béninoise charity run.

Equality

Promoting an Inclusive Society

Diversity and professional equality are at the heart of our corporate culture. Each year, on the occasion of International Women’s Rights Day, we host a dedicated event to celebrate the journeys of inspiring women. We are proud to collaborate with partners such as Lire pour en Sortir, which works in particular to support the reintegration of incarcerated women through reading. We have also had the privilege of welcoming individuals such as Karine Dijoud, a French literature teacher and author of Parenthèses élémentaires, to foster discussions on gender equality and inclusion in the workplace. This event, primarily dedicated to our clients, provides an opportunity to share experiences, highlight inspiring journeys, and draw strength from the values that unite us.

Heritage

Preserving a Spirit of Freedom and Transmission

The history of our firm, founded in 1920, naturally connects us to the preservation of our society’s roots. This is why José Desfilis serves as President of the Fondation du Château de La Brède, which is dedicated to restoring the historic residence of Montesquieu.

For us, this commitment goes far beyond the preservation of a historic building. It is about keeping alive a place of remembrance where modern thought on the separation of powers and individual liberties was born. Supporting La Brède means protecting a universal heritage that continues to shape our democratic values and our legal practice.

Through this engagement, our firm contributes to passing on an exceptional intellectual legacy, convinced that understanding our history is the key to building a brighter and more enlightened future.
