What the team is known for

The law firm has continued to expand globally, making it a valuable option for handling cross-border matters, and the firm's team in London frequently acts as a generator and leader in relation to work done for multinational clients in conjunction with the firm's growing network of overseas offices. It has strong coverage across Europe, the USA and the Middle East, and it has also developed a reputation for handling work spanning into Africa, Asia and Latin America, often through alliances with local firms.
