International & Cross-Border Capabilities - Australia
What the Team is Known For
Allens is a premier Australian law firm with an international practice that is reinforced by its alliance with Linklaters. This formal relationship enables Allens to integrate its Australia-based lawyers into global teams when providing multi-jurisdictional advice. The two firms jointly advise on infrastructure projects in South-East Asia for clients headquartered throughout Asia and elsewhere, and Allens is well positioned to coordinate advice for Australian corporates on their overseas business.
In addition to the alliance with Linklaters, Allens houses leading practitioners in Vietnam and Papua New Guinea, and Australia-based expertise for projects across the Asia-Pacific region. The law firm is consistently singled out by clients for its top-tier offering across M&A, financing and disputes in all of Australia's major economic sectors.
Strengths
The team is incredibly knowledgeable, not only of the law in its current state, but of all the potential changes both in Australia and globally.
Allens offers market-leading antitrust and foreign investment advice and their ability to support high-profile, potentially challenging transactions is unmatched.
Allens is distinguished by its practical advice and gives a global perspective from a local firm.
