Most of the cases he has worked on have involved the criminal jurisdictions and regulatory authorities of different countries, and required coordinating defense teams from several States.

He has defended clients before all French criminal courts, regulatory bodies, and administrative authorities (including the AMF, the Court of Auditors, as well as the Budget and Finance Disciplinary Court).

Because of that experience, Thierry Marembert frequently appears as a speaker on international corruption at the annual OECD / IBA Anti-Corruption Conferences :
