About us

Paris Lease Check is led by Polina Tambourov, a US-trained attorney specialising in contract law. Originally based in Chicago, she worked at Northern Trust before relocating to Paris, where she joined the legal teams at Voodoo and TikTok. Seeing first-hand how difficult the Paris rental market can be for English-speaking newcomers, she built PLC to give expats the same level of scrutiny and protection that a well-resourced company takes for granted. If you have questions beyond a residential lease, from landlord disputes to broader contract matters, reach out; we are happy to discuss your situation.
