In January 2026, Mr Grégory THUAN, known as DIEUDONNÉ, a lawyer at the Strasbourg Bar, Chair of the Human Rights Commission of the Union of European Lawyers and Chair of the Human Rights Commission of the Strasbourg Bar, spoke at the National Conference on Family and Property Law on the topic: “ Using European law: preliminary rulings and the ECHR in family law”.

This conference, co-chaired by Alice MEIER-BOURDEAU, a lawyer at the Council of State and the Court of Cassation, and Agnès DANIEL, a senior legal adviser at the Court of Cassation, was devoted to the practical application of European Union law and the case law of the European Court of Human Rights in family law disputes.

Discussions focused in particular on preliminary rulings before the Court of Justice of the European Union, the protection of family life under Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights, the fundamental rights of the child, the best interests of the child, and the strategic use of European case-law before French courts.

This presentation illustrates the expertise developed by Mr Grégory THUAN DIT DIEUDONNÉ in European fundamental rights litigation and its practical application to family law, both before national and European courts.
