Christopher Fisher

Chris Fisher advises on a broad range of contentious and non-contentious matters. His advisory experience includes recruitment and termination of executives; team moves; restructuring programmes, including collective and individual consultation; business transfers and outsourcing; and the implications of the Business Transfer Regulations. Chris works regularly on projects covering multiple countries, whether they are outsourcings, restructurings or other projects where clients require international advice managed out of the UK. Recent work has included the introduction of new employment contracts across 55 countries for a global retail client, advice on restructuring (including collective consultation requirements) for a financial services client across Europe, North America and Asia, and an outsourcing transaction negotiated on UK law principles but covering various ARD and non-ARD countries. On this latter area, Chris works frequently with our network of firms located outside of the countries where Mayer Brown has offices.

Chris joined Mayer Brown in 2001 and became a partner in 2003. Clients comment that he "provides advice in the way that we need it, and he understands how our company works and is structured" and that "he is commercial, understands our business, is accessible and is a pleasure to work with."
