As part of our International networks, we have access to other legal advisers across the world, and more recently we’ve had the opportunity of working with a Consulegis firm based in California, Nossaman LLP, where they assisted us on a transaction involving a US acquirer.
Nossaman is known for its work on public infrastructure and real estate projects but also has a diverse Corporate team, counselling clients throughout their business lifecycle, from formation and growth strategies (including M & A and taxation in complex transactions) to governance, regulation and all stages in between. Last October, as part of our Exchange Programme, one of our Principal Associates in our Corporate & Private Equity team had the opportunity to join the team at Nossaman in Los Angeles for 2 weeks.
The programme aims to strengthen international business and provide colleagues with the opportunity to work in new locations and learn about different jurisdictions. The trip allowed us to strengthen our transatlantic connections and understanding of how Nossaman operate, learning more about their work in various US jurisdictions. It provided an opportunity to share expertise, forge new relationships, and there was even time for a baseball game at Dodger Stadium.
Working successfully on a global basis takes more than just knowledge of the law: you need to understand how different countries and markets do business – socially, commercially, and culturally. Our lawyers frequently work abroad and speak at international conferences and events. We look forward to strengthening our relationship with Nossaman and continuing to grow the Capital Exchange Programme, furthering links between us and the world.
Whether you need advice on a cross-jurisdictional transaction, with managing your employees overseas, are looking to buy a property or set up an office in another country, or trade across the globe, we can help – get in touch with our International team now.
