Luc Dubois

“In my line of work, I often encounter people who have lost a piece of art that holds great sentimental value to them. It's a joy to be able to reunite them with their beloved objects.”

Luc Dubois is a lawyer based in Chicago, originally from France. He always had a passion for history and art, which led him to pursue a degree in law with a focus on art law. When he's not busy representing his clients, you can find him exploring the city's art museums or playing jazz on his saxophone at a local bar. Despite his busy schedule, Luc always makes time for his wife and two young daughters, whom he adores.

What inspired you to specialize in art law?

Growing up in France, I was surrounded by beautiful art and architecture. When I moved to the States, I realized that there was a need for lawyers who understood the importance of art and could help protect it. I knew then that I wanted to use my skills to help preserve cultural heritage.

What's your favorite jazz piece to play on the saxophone?

As a Frenchman, I have a soft spot for Django Reinhardt's Minor Swing. But I also love experimenting with modern jazz and fusion.

How do you balance your work and family life?

It's not easy, but I always make sure to prioritize my family. They come first, no matter what. I also try to involve my kids in my interests - we go to art museums together, and my daughters have even started picking up the saxophone themselves.
