°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ services
At °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ, we believe that connection is strength. Our approach to international work for our clients is no exception.
Our model is flexible and agile. We work with a network of legal experts that we know work like we do, pragmatic organisations that are focussed on the right outcomes for our clients. This approach allows us to leverage regional specialisms from world-class law firms in all major jurisdictions.
What sets us apart is our commitment to sector-specific expertise, we are committed to our clients and the industries they work in. We work with an 'inhouse' team of experts from those industries who chair our sector boards, all of whom have sat on the boards of major national and international organisations. Our sector expertise spans energy and infrastructure, financial services, health, manufacturing and industrials, real estate and construction, retail, consumer and logistics and technology.
We provide a full-service international legal offering that includes corporate, data and compliance, IP law, multi-jurisdictional litigation, and employment and immigration.
40% of our corporate transactions annually are cross-border while our international litigation expertise speaks for itself, with our dispute resolution team handling global cases like claims across the UK, Europe and the Commonwealth in the infamous Madoff Ponzi scheme – the world’s largest fraud.
With our integrated London-Dublin team, we are the perfect partner for international businesses looking to access the UK and the 27 EU countries, and of course for British and Irish companies wishing to enter the global market.
What’s more, we also offer a tailor-made service for US firms working in the fast-moving tech and data sectors with our integrated London and Dublin teams along with our deep connections in firms across America.
