Clémentine Legendre
Associate Professor

— Agrégation in Private Law and Criminal Sciences
Thesis: The Coordination of the International Sports Movement and State and Supra-State Legal Orders
After completing her studies in private international law, Clémentine decided to write her thesis on "The Coordination of the International Sports Movement and State and Supra-State Legal Orders."
Since then, Clémentine has skillfully combined international law and sports law, dedicating herself to complex and thorny issues such as the power of sports federations to regulate the economic activity of clubs, respect for the right to a fair trial before the Court of Arbitration for Sport, and the subjection of sporting power to the European Convention on Human Rights.
After teaching at the University of Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne from 2019 to 2022, where she still leads a seminar on international sports arbitration, Clémentine joined the University of Lorraine after passing the competitive examination for university teaching positions (agrégation), where she teaches family law, private international law, and civil procedure.
Clémentine practices private international law, international arbitration, and sports law.
