Led by a lawyer,
built around the client
Tzeriz Consultant was founded in 2023 by a lawyer who saw that the decisions that matter most to a company or a family rarely fall within a single discipline.
A property acquisition is also a financing question. A shareholder agreement is also a tax and governance question. We bring legal, commercial and financial judgement together under one mandate, so that our clients deal with one adviser who sees the whole file and answers for it.
Three years on, we act for a select group of companies, entrepreneurs, families and professionals, several of whom have entrusted us with the day-to-day management of their affairs.

Client Representation
We act
We act
in your name
Many clients ask us to go further than advice. Under a written mandate, we represent them before counterparties, banks, notaries, investors and public bodies. We negotiate on their behalf, attend meetings in their place and report to them at every stage.
How representation works- Negotiation with counterparties
- Relations with banks and lenders
- Investor and partner meetings
- Management of companies and assets
How we work
Analyse, advise, operate, communicate
Our role does not end with a recommendation. We stay with the client through execution, and we account for the result.
-
Step I
Analyse
We start with the facts: the documents, the figures, the people involved and the risks. No advice is given before the file is understood.
-
Step II
Advise
We set out the options plainly, with their consequences, and recommend one. Our advice is written, reasoned and signed.
-
Step III
Operate
Where the client wishes, we carry out the decision: we negotiate, coordinate other advisers and run the matter to completion.
-
Step IV
Communicate
We report regularly and in writing. We also present our clients and their projects to the banks, investors and partners they need to convince.
Who we act for
Companies, private clients and professionals
We keep our client list deliberately small, so that each client has direct access to the partner in charge of their affairs.
Private clients
Entrepreneurs, families and investors who want their assets, investments and projects handled with discretion by someone who knows their situation.
Professional clients
Investment managers, developers, intermediaries and other advisers who need a trusted counterpart to represent them or work alongside them.
We take on fewer clients and go further with each of them.
