He frequently exercises in the fields of real estate, leasing, construction, land use planning or in commercial and financial matters.

He defends road accident victims as well as offenders of the severe “Via Sicura” regime established in Switzerland.
Jacques Roulet has led various fights often reported in the press (Dieselgate VW, Via Sicura, Taxis and Uber, reorganization of the police).
