International

Our International team offers a full range of services to businesses, both UK and internationally based, which have a requirement to operate across borders.

International Services

Our approach is simple: we recognise the value in understanding the subtle differences that exist between cultures and legal systems. We offer that intangible extra insight that enables our clients to operate across borders or move into new markets more effectively and efficiently and, therefore, with increased confidence.

Established more than 150 years ago, Birketts is a full service, highly regarded UK law firm, operating from five offices in the UK, and in the heart of the City of London.

Relationships

Fundamental to our international delivery is having access to the finest, carefully selected teams of local lawyers from around the world – you benefit from our relationships. This allows us to be able to meet all of your legal needs – wherever required – by providing fully integrated local expertise within a global context.

Our work is founded on the principle that we never compromise on quality. Our clients will always be provided with advice that is clear, relevant and sensitive to the local market and their individual needs.

Our expertise

Birketts has a team of expert professionals experienced in operating across borders. Some have lived and worked outside the UK, some speak different languages. All understand the importance of being sympathetic to other cultures and varied ways of communicating and doing business.
As trading becomes increasingly international and people’s affairs more complicated, Birketts continues to advance to keep ahead of your evolving needs.
