Bio
Jacques-Olivier Ndoumbe
J'ai été dans la même université que Christian. Nous étions, également, des coéquipiers dans l'équipe de football où il n'a manqué de faire observer ses qualités de leader. Lors des après match durant les échanges sa passion pour le droit était fortement remarquée. Nous avons continué à nous fréquenter dans le cadre des Alumni de notre université et son accompagnement fiscal et son sens de l'organisation ont été salués à plusieurs reprises. Je le recommande fortement à tous ceux qui ont des problématiques ou un besoin de formation en fiscalité .
Jessica Notini
Edmond is extremely motivated, articulate and bright as a student. He demonstrated very good skills as a negotiator, an ability to learn and improve rapidly, and he was positive and engaging presence in the class.
Jason C. Meek
With curiosity, perseverance, intellect, and curiosity, Edmond Christian represents the very best in the next generation of globally-minded lawyers.
