Regarded as a highly-capable global practice, CMS provides a comprehensive service to international clients in areas such as M&A, dispute resolution, and banking and finance. The sector-oriented London team exhibits real strength advising clients from the energy, insurance, technology and life sciences spaces. Cross-border mandates are often coordinated from the UK, but the law firm also stands out for its excellent network of offices throughout continental Europe, which is strengthened by its presence in Asia, Africa and Latin America.
The funds team at CMS has strength in breadth, making it a popular choice for fund managers investing in a wide range of asset classes in a variety of target markets. It has considerable experience advising on registered funds, and the firm's extensive experience in international real estate matters makes it a popular choice throughout the life-cycle of real estate funds. CMS's significant global platform ensures it is able to coordinate cross-border fund establishment and buyout matters, including in the venture capital space, involving the Middle East and Europe.
