Last month, our lead International Partner and Head of Restructuring and Insolvency, Niten Chauhan was in Hanoi, Vietnam in his role as President of the League of Lawyers and Chairman of the Asia-Europe Committee of LAWASIA.
Over the past few decades, financial markets have become increasingly interconnected. As a result, in today’s globalised economy, the banking and finance sector has transcended national borders particularly in the UK as more and more companies and individuals seek to operate and conduct business overseas. In turn, the need for legal expertise that spans multiple jurisdictions has never been more critical. Law firms, in turn, need to expand their services beyond local and national boundaries as clients, which can include global financial institutions, investment funds and multinational organisations require legal advice that is not simply confined to one jurisdiction but spans multiple countries. However, unlike large, city law firms who seek to establish their own offices in different jurisdictions at Harold Benjamin, we have enhanced our global capabilities by establishing connections through legal networks, including the League of Lawyers and also by supporting overseas organisations such as LAWASIA; the law association for Asia and the Pacific.
Niten said:
“For law firms such as Harold Benjamin, that specialise in banking and finance, having a strong international network is not just beneficial but essential for providing effective and efficient legal services in a highly demanding market. We value the trusted relationships we have developed with firms globally so that our clients have access to legal services wherever they are needed in the world."
