It has an excellent presence in key Asian markets, plus a São Paulo office that also boosts the firm's global offering. The firm is a dominant force on international M&A, finance and energy transactions. It also regularly navigates clients through cross-border disputes, investigations and arbitration as coordinating counsel.
