Practice Area · Technology & International
International Law
Cross-border transactions, treaties, global counsel.
In short
Cross-border work is designed, not improvised. Structure, treaty protection and the mechanics of a future dispute are settled before an agreement is signed. Where a matter needs a lawyer on the ground elsewhere, the firm works with foreign-qualified counsel under a written engagement.
