Mohamed Naït Kaci joined Vivien & Associés in 2026 as a partner in Restructuring and Business Litigation.
Mohamed will lead the Restructuring practice and will also strengthen the firm’s existing Business Litigation offering.
Admitted to the Paris Bar in 2006, he began his career in the litigation and restructuring departments of international law firms before co-founding the independent firm CNK ASSOCIES in 2015 with Jean-Paul Coudray.
Mohamed assists French and international clients — SMEs, mid-sized companies, large groups and executives — on restructuring matters. His practice covers all aspects of corporate distress, from preventive proceedings to insolvency proceedings, acting for debtors, purchasers and creditors alike.
He has developed highly sought-after expertise in defending directors and officers in liability claims (wrongful trading, management bans, and personal bankruptcy). He also has extensive experience in high-stakes corporate litigation and commercial disputes, regularly representing clients before French courts and arbitral tribunals in complex and/or cross-border matters.
