Real Estate
Our team advises on some of the largest and most complex real estate transactions in the market. We have one of the world’s largest full-service teams and can advise in most jurisdictions globally. We work in partnership with global, regional and local businesses that engage in real estate from all perspectives.
We have the capability and depth to handle every aspect of commercial real estate, including retail, office, industrial, hospitality and leisure, multi-family, student housing, affordable housing, data centres, leasing transactions, healthcare, timber, natural resources and agribusiness projects.
Our experience also covers major regeneration and infrastructure-led projects, premier investment mandates, multi-layered funds and joint ventures structured for tax and regulatory efficiency, alternative real estate assets and portfolio asset management.
Employment, Labor and Pensions
We are a practice that works across the entire breadth of international employment, labour and pensions issues.
Clients praise us for our ability to provide quality employment legal advice in our domestic markets, coordinate advice across multiple global jurisdictions and project manage matters from initial scoping through to completion to ensure a consistent, customer-focused and seamless service.
Whilst we are not reliant on corporate support (a significant portion of our work is derived from issues not relating to M&A and other corporate issues) we have a strong record of working on corporate deals, supporting clients with project management and co-ordinating advice from multiple jurisdictions throughout deals and subsequent integrations.
We overlay our knowledge of employment, labour and pensions law with the considerable sector experience we have gained. We work across most sectors and have particular experience within the technology, media and telecommunications, manufacturing and engineering, energy, consumer and financial institutions sectors.
