We are noted for our commitment to client service and our ability to assist clients with their most complex and demanding legal and business challenges worldwide. We serve many of the world's largest companies, including a significant proportion of the Fortune 100, FTSE 100, DAX and Hang Seng Index companies and more than half of the world's largest banks. We provide legal services in areas such as banking and finance; corporate and securities; litigation and dispute resolution; antitrust and competition; US Supreme Court and appellate matters; employment and benefits; environmental; financial services regulatory & enforcement; government and global trade; intellectual property; real estate; tax; restructuring, bankruptcy and insolvency; and wealth management.
We focus on giving our new lawyers one-to-one attention, support and the opportunities you need to succeed in the legal world. Although we are one of the world's largest full-service law firms, our offices are made up of tightly knit teams with cultures that are open and inclusive. That means you get the best of both worlds. Because we are a large and growing firm, you'll find expanding opportunities to serve clients locally and internationally. And you'll find colleagues who are ambitious and hard-working but who also believe in having lives outside work. Our lawyers say the culture is one of the best things about working here.
