Chambers Review
Baker McKenzie offers one of the most expansive and established international footprints in the legal industry, and its global reach is frequently referred to by clients as one of its primary assets. Its global reach means Baker McKenzie is well versed in handling cross-border matters from its Luxembourg office, offering an integrated and streamlined legal service to clients, a key element of its international strategy.
Baker McKenzie's Luxembourg office plays a critical role in the law firm's international investment funds practice, which often services global asset managers and public or private institutional investors in Luxembourg. The law firm also has a transactional focus on M&A and banking and finance, and their cross-border transactions tend to involve a mixture of clients in the real estate and private equity sectors, often incorporating multiple jurisdictions.
