In emerging and established markets, we deploy our knowledge of applicable laws, business practices, and cultures to advise and represent our clients on their cross-border business matters. In addition, there are no borders for the services we provide. Our offices, networks of operations, partners, affiliates and financial contacts have proved to be a major key factor in the success of our clients’ businesses.
Wealth of experience: Our firm has in-depth experience, not simply in terms of legal and business expertise but in the technical knowledge and experience required to find the commercial route to a client’s objectives. We act for a wide range of clients, from major corporations to small family businesses. They are in areas as diverse as banking and insurance, property development and investments, travel and leisure, tourism, civil airlines, manufacturing and the professions. In the public sector, we counsel governments on privatization of whole industries and on establishment of regulatory systems under which new private businesses can compete. In addition, by offering a wide range of services and area expertise tailored to meet individual client needs and to recognize and capitalize on emerging business opportunities, we engage in every stage of strategic planning, raising capital, risk management, market development, ongoing operations, and asset sales.

As such, we are responsive, thoughtful, ethical and vigorous with a substantive understanding of our clients’ business needs and the many marketplaces in which they compete.
