French-speaking lawyers, city by city

Where these came from

These come from 173 different sources, led by the Rechtsanwaltskammer Düsseldorf, the statutory bar of the Düsseldorf district (816), the Czech Bar Association (641) and the Victorian Legal Services Board + Commissioner (395). A consular list records the language because the mission publishes it for its own citizens, which is why French turns up in 91 countries rather than only where French is spoken.

3770 of the 3779 sit on an official list, 6 confirmed their own entry to us directly; the rest rest on the provider saying so or on a directory listing, and each card says which.

Where we have nothing

We list lawyers in 246 further cities with no French speaker recorded, among them Paris (279), Kathmandu (30), Podgorica (27) and Sydney (27). That is a gap in what has been published, not proof that nobody there works in French.

Questions

How many French-speaking lawyers does this page list?

3779, in 256 cities. That is the number whose working language we can trace to a published source.

Where are most of them?

Düsseldorf with 825, Prague with 572 and Melbourne with 391. Together that is 47% of the page.

Does a listing mean the lawyer speaks French personally?

Not always. Some sources name a practice whose staff include a French speaker rather than the named person, and each card quotes the wording its source used.

All 502 cities where we list lawyers, whatever the language.
