does everything”, offering advice and representation to all business areas in a large variety of industries.
Characteristics
The firm does not “ deal with every case”; hence, only a limited number of engagements are accepted, to ensure that clients enjoy responsiveness/service which are consistent with the leading international firms.This in turn ensures timely turnaround/delivery times, cost-effective strategies, reliability – key factors which contribute and are crucial to the firm’s overall operational efficiency.
In an effort to remain at all times conflict-free and be able to act in complex commercial disputes, the firm does not act as a trustee company by way of
provision of corporate administration services, neither it acts on behalf of local banks on fixed retainers, thus focusing on 100% legal work.
