droit international privé

Droit international privé, or private international law, deals with legal issues that arise when there are conflicts between the laws of different countries involving private individuals or entities. It helps determine which country’s laws apply and how to handle legal matters such as contracts, family law, or disputes with an international aspect. Essentially, it provides a framework for resolving cross-border legal conflicts, ensuring consistent and fair outcomes by clarifying jurisdiction, applicable law, and recognition of foreign judgments.
