About
Certified Specialist SBA Construction and Real Estate Law
Marc-Etienne Favre was born in Morges in 1968. He is the third child of a farming family from Villars-sous-Yens, a small village on the shores of Lake Leman. After his scientific schooling in Morges and Lausanne, he obtained a Master of Law degree at Lausanne University and a European Private Law Certificate in 1991. He now lives between Morges and Lausanne, with his wife and their three children.
From his origins, he has a natural bent for everything relating to the land. His first professional experience made him competent in matters relating to Social Security and private insurance and he then worked for more than fifteen years as a general practitioner in local law firms of repute. He obtained a Certificate in advance Study in construction and real estate law in 2010.
Mr. Favre is currently training in mediation, with a view to obtaining the title of FSA Mediator, in order to certify the skills he has acquired in the various alternative dispute resolution methods. He hopes to be able to direct his practice more towards alternatives to state justice, in particular for conflicts linked to planning or building permits, which are his preferred fields and in which he has acquired a wealth of experience, both at cantonal and federal level.
