The Charles Morel firm is recognized for its pioneering work in favor of the recognition of the rights of reality TV candidates[1]In 2003, he filed a complaint denouncing the sectarian methods of recruiting candidates, with authentic couples being targeted by fictitious couples, then exposed to a series of trivial commitments that are designed and carried out to create an irreversible process until the signing of the employment contract in a context of manipulation and insurmountable pressure. He then successfully worked before the Paris Industrial Tribunal alongside his colleagues Jérémy Assous and Mehdi Lefevre-Maalem for the reclassification of the participants' employment contracts as employment contracts, their status and working conditions (rigid hours, precise directives, filming constraints, etc.) characterizing their condition as employees. His intervention marked a turning point in the sector, highlighting the precariousness of reality TV candidates and contributing to reconfiguring the law applicable in this sector. He will subsequently speak for many participants, including Loana Petrucciani.
