Investigations & Enforcement (International & Cross-Border) - USA
What the team is known for
Long-term, concerted international expansion from its US base has enabled Cleary Gottlieb to become one of most globally recognised brands in numerous areas of international law. The law firm's broad office network incorporates established teams stationed across key financial and political centres in the USA, Europe, South-East Asia, the Middle East and Latin America. Providing cross-border expertise across transactional, regulatory and contentious areas, it gathers wide acclaim for its role leading significant transatlantic mandates, often through close coordination between its US base and deeply entrenched European teams.
The law firm offers a globally integrated crisis management practice, built upon its strong New York base and facilitated by its global footprint, which includes strong teams of litigators in Brussels and Frankfurt. It is highly regarded for international investigations, boasting an established client base of multinational banks and impressive bench depth. Cross-border work is also aided by the firm's engagement with local counsel in places where it does not offer on-the-ground presence, which is governed by a bespoke selection policy, drawing from a list of firms with which the team has a strong relationship.
