international


The depth and breadth of our expertise means we can tackle complex international cases that are beyond the scope of many other firms of lawyers - larger and multinational firms cannot match our expertise on personal matters, whilst many other private client firms cannot equal our experience in commercial and professional issues. A significant proportion of our work comes from referrals from other advisers or professional firms across the world.

Many of our specialist teams are rated as leaders in their fields, and regularly attract work from across the EU and internationally. We are sometimes called "the lawyers' lawyers" because of the number of lawyers who choose to consult us on their personal legal affairs.

We offer high-quality specialist advice on many cross border legal matters, personal or professional - from relocation and immigration issues to structures for investment and property ownership, intellectual property across jurisdictions, commercial contracts and international infringement of rights of various kinds, international estate and tax planning, cross border wills and matrimonial and inheritance contracts, relationship breakdown, child abduction and custody, and the care and protection of the elderly and their assets across national borders.

We are particularly known for our expertise in cross border matters between France and the United Kingdom. We have three French lawyers and two French legal assistants in London who advise on many aspects of personal and tax law for clients and lawyers who need help understanding the interaction of British and French laws and tax.

International and cross border legal matters are highly complex and you may not be sure who to contact initially. Don't worry - the first lawyer you speak to will be happy to direct you. We may not always be able to speak your language, but we will understand your problem.
