International & Cross-Border Transactions

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. The Paris office plays an important strategic role in the law firm's vast global network, and clients often look to practitioners in Paris to play a coordinating role and lead a team across the firm's other offices on cross-border mandates.

Demonstrating a strong transactional capability, the Paris team's caseload is dominated by international deals and it advises a mixture of international clients with business interests in France and domestic companies wishing to expand operations overseas. The law firm has developed a strong name within communications and IT, and clients in those industries are well served by its international experience of the sector. The law firm also provides comprehensive advice on cross-border tax issues and is ideally positioned to provide a global service on mid-market transactions.
