Investigations & Enforcement (International & Cross-Border)

Chambers Review

Debevoise & Plimpton offers an exceptional multidisciplinary and international practice with notable capabilities in the global contentious space. Renowned for handling complex multi-jurisdictional disputes, it also holds an impressive track record for coordinating cross-border transactions. The New York office, often regarded as the central hub of the law firm’s international operations, is known to coordinate highly complex international work and regularly co-counsels with colleagues in the UK, Asia and Europe.

The law firm's investigations practice consists of an impressive international team exclusively focused on cross-border work, which provides an integrated transatlantic offering due to the firm's prominence in the USA. The London office represents UK clients with issues overseas, as well as non-UK clients with issues related to UK or US regulators. The team is additionally sought after by clients for multi-jurisdictional investigations and global compliance reviews. For cross-border cases in jurisdictions beyond its office coverage, the firm typically coordinates with local counsel chosen through a bespoke selection process based on personal relationships and recommendations.
