Samuel Crevel

A recognised specialist in agriculture law, Samuel Crevel’s day-to-day practice consists of assisting operators in this sector (farmers, cooperatives, merchants, inter-professional organisations, landowners, etc.) in all aspects of the production and sale of food-products.

Most frequently, he advises operators in connection with farming rights (rural leases, SAFER, monitoring of farming structures, structuring and transfers of farming operations).

Samuel Crevel is also frequently called upon to advise forest owners with respect to the management of their property.

He is regularly called upon to advise regional governments, notably when such governments (or their elected officials) are the subject of criminal prosecution.

Samuel is a lecturer at the University of Paris I Panthéon- Sorbonne (Professional Master 2 in European Law: “Law governing agriculture and the agri-food chain”). He is a member of the Strategy Committee of the “Haut conseil de la coopération agricole” (High Council of Rural Cooperation).

He was honoured by the French Government as Knight of the Order of Agricultural Merit.

Samuel is also the scientific co-director of Revue de Droit Rural (Rural Law Review). As such, Samuel has authored a monthly chronicle on rural leases, SAFERs and farming structure controls, as well as articles on these areas and agricultural cooperatives.
