Patrick Maisonneuve
Patrick Maisonneuve (born 1 March 1955) is a French lawyer of criminal law. He began his legal practice in 1979, and has become famous for taking on widely reviled high-profile clients that other lawyers have shunned. In 2013〔("Le top 30 des avocats les plus puissants de France" ), ''GQ'', November 2013, p. 133.〕 and 2014 ''GQ'' ranked him the sixth most powerful lawyer of France.
He defended Edmond Hervé in the ministers' trial of the Infected blood scandal in 1999, after years of investigations and procedure;〔"Mis en examen dans l'affaire du sang contaminé — Edmond Hervé a été interrogé sur le fonctionnement du secrétariat d'Etat à la santé entre 1984 et 1986", ''Le Monde'', September 30, 1994; (France 2, July 17, 1998 ); "La défense demande à la Cour de se référer uniquement au droit pénal", ''Le Monde'', February 27, 1999.〕 Gilles Ménage (former chief of staff of François Mitterrand) in the trial (2005) of the Presidency's abusive wiretappings (1983-1986);〔"L'avocat de Gilles Ménage “n'ira pas plus loin”", ''Le Monde'', 24 février 2005.〕 and Sébastien de Montessus, former director of mines of Areva, sued by his own ex-boss, Anne Lauvergeon, for alleged spying of her private life (Sébastien de Montessus has been acquitted). One of his most unpopular clients was , made famous by the Outreau affair. He defended him in front of the (CSM, Higher Judicial Council), and sued two national newspapers as well as Bertrand Tavernier for libel. The newspapers and the movie director have been sentenced. In 2009, Maisonneuve defended the Church of Scientology on charges of profiting illegally. He is defence lawyer for Yoo Som-na, the eldest daughter of Yoo Byung-eun.
Regardless, Maisonneuve is on the plaintiffs' side in some important cases, especially the case of the against Laboratoires Servier (Mediator scandal).
On May 26, 2014, Maisonneuve revealed during a press conference that the company , for which he is the lawyer, made bogus invoices as a result of the pressure exterted by the staff of Nicolas Sarkozy and by the UMP: instead of making bills for Nicolas Sarkozy's campaign, Bygmalion was requested to exaggerate or to invent works for the UMP's ordinary activities, because the electoral expenses exceeded the legal spending limit. Patrick Maisonneuve estimated the total amount of the fake invoices to "more than 10 million euros" and called the demand of the UMP for "financial blakcmail". The next day, the chairman of the UMP, Jean-François Copé announced his resignation. The criminal investigation accelerated during the following months. In the name of his clients, Patrick Maisonneuve also filed three complaints against ''Le Point'', who, in three different articles, had accused Bygmalion of profiting illegally (an accusation never endorsed by the investigative magistrates in charge of the case).
