Getting legal advice abroad
1st October 2008
MSI is a global alliance of lawyers and accountants and all members must be verified and fluent in English. Head of corporate at LA, David Ashplant commented:
"These are law firms we have already worked with and meet with regularly.
All our European colleagues speak excellent English and we can co-ordinate the project for our clients. Many large firms have set up their own satellite offices overseas.
We believe that partnering with local firms overseas who know their own markets and systems will secure the best results for clients"
LA has recently used fellow MSI firms in Spain, France and the USA to assist clients with acquisitions in those countries and in France, Holland, Italy and Switzerland to help clients with contracts or commercial disputes in those countries. The MSI network is worldwide and LA has also recently used the firms in India and Mexico to assist clients.
LA also produces a regular emerging markets bulletin with MSI highlighting developing market economies and opportunities.
