As Israel’s powerhouse law firm, we provide cutting-edge and commerce-savvy legal advice to an unrivalled roster of local and international companies, investors, and entrepreneurs, across all industries. Our unmatched breadth of experience in cross-border and domestic matters and perspicuous understanding of global business, are complemented by an integrated legal approach, with roughly 50 specialty departments collaborating seamlessly to deliver efficient and innovative solutions.
Since its foundation in 1972, Herzog has strived for professional excellence at the forefront of legal practice, consistently guiding clients to success. International and domestic clients benefit from a one-stop-shop firm capable of providing agile services that fit the dynamic, and multi-disciplined financial landscape of the time. We are committed to timely and comprehensive service, befitting the leader of Israel's competitive legal market, and our dedication to the highest standards and our clients' success makes us trusted advisors.
Herzog is ahead of the curve in meeting the challenges posed by technological advances and emerging industries with specialist practice areas that deliver results in unchartered territories as well as traditional landscapes. We were the first Israeli pioneers in novel fields like Cryptocurrency, Crisis Management, Fintech, Urban Renewal, Impact Investment, Insurance-Tech and more. Our clients include a wide array of local and international companies, such as private, public, national, and international bodies, venture capital and investment funds, hi-tech giants and start-ups, banks and financial institutions, HMOs and hospitals, academic and research organizations, and many more. In addition, our firm specializes in advising large financial institutions located in Israel and abroad on intricate, high stakes deals. Moreover, in recognition of the booming Israeli technology community in the Bay Area, Herzog is the first Israeli law firm to establish a representative Silicon Valley branch that provides a real-time connection between our Tel Aviv office and the forefront of the tech world.
Herzog is considered by many to have most robust international specialty in Israel. Our lawyers are not only the brightest legal minds in the profession but possess in-depth understanding of local and global markets rooted in hands-on business experience. Our legal team – the country’s most diverse – includes more than 50 native English speakers, hailing from the US, UK, and Australia, who hold foreign licenses and have studied and/or worked abroad.
In keeping with the firm’s global perspective, most of our business is conducted in English, but we are conversant in German, French, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, Korean, Portuguese and Arabic. Due to the increased global interest in Israeli companies, we have developed foreign desks for, as well as financial and professional ties in various geographies, on top of our decades-long representation of clients in Europe, the UK, Australia, and the US. These include China, Taiwan, Japan, Korea, India, Singapore, the UAE, and Russia.
Herzog was founded by three prominent lawyers: the late Chaim Herzog, who later became Israel's sixth President, Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations, and Member of Israeli Parliament; the late Michael Fox, known for his corporate work and legal contributions to the development of the infrastructure, energy and natural resource fields in Israel; and the late Dr. Yaakov Neeman, author of numerous books and articles on tax law and respected tax advisor, who served as the former Minister of Finance and Minister of Justice. Their unyielding commitment to professional exceptionalism, customer-service, creativity, innovation, and a broad global perspective are preserved to this day and propelled into the future.
