Despite his optimistic temper, Me Vincent Rivierre, the chairman of the Bar association, cannot hide his concern. “We have the impression that it is an endless August 15. Hope, however. Since May 11, office phones have started ringing again, and the secretaries are back to work.
Still a lot of uncertainty
” It feels good. Life resumes in our cabinets. But I am thinking of young lawyers who have recently moved in and who are facing big cash flow problems after five months of very limited activity. “

For the president of the bar, it is in September that the assessment can be made. “We are going to enter the summer period. A time when we work much less than the rest of the year. “
Even more so if activity gradually resumes in court, there remains a great deal of uncertainty. “I am thinking especially of family cases which represent more than 60% of the court’s activity. “
Deconfinement: resumption of the hearings at the court of Chartres with compulsory mask
This litigation is slowly restarting, at 50% of its potential. “The waiting room is too small and so are the judges’ offices. “
To overcome this difficulty, the small audience hall on the ground floor will be used. “The large courtroom will serve as a waiting room. The organization forced the court to end the June Assize Court session. “
Me Rivierre does not hide it. “This problem directly impacts the economy of our practices. “
Same worries to the Prud’hommes of Chartres who have not yet worked out, while those of Dreux are about to resume. “I wrote a letter to the first president of the court of appeal to tell him about this problem. “
