Overview
Conducting international business requires experienced advisers who understand how to navigate cross-border laws, cultural differences and global regulatory compliance issues. We advise on international business and commercial transactions as you establish new cross-border operations, negotiate and implement sophisticated cross-border mergers and acquisitions, enter into strategic alliances or joint ventures, or outsource technology or business operations. With extensive knowledge of data protection regulations, customs, trade, export control, sanctions, international trade, the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), antitrust and antibribery laws, we craft solutions that are both practical and strategic. We have significant experience with inbound U.S. transactions, advising multinationals and non-U.S. clients on U.S. operations and providing counsel to non-U.S. clients preparing to enter the U.S. and other markets. We can prepare you for the risks associated with doing business in the U.S. and help you secure appropriate protections. We provide creative problem-solving when you face complex legal challenges and the unpredictability of international business transactions. Clients often consider us extensions of their internal teams as we have the knowledge to advise on contracts, tax matters and legal logistics to help them avoid expensive mistakes and potential delays or confusion during transactions outside of the U.S. and transactions in the U.S. led by non-U.S. clients.
