About Cooley London As a global city – a centre of finance and a hub for technology, innovation and creativity – London is a natural fit for Cooley’s international clients and for its strategic global growth. The office now has more than 100 lawyers and will move to a new base at 22 Bishopsgate in 2021.

The office provides corporate legal advice to established and high-growth companies and investors on domestic and cross-border mergers and acqui- sitions, corporate finance, capital markets transactions and private equity and venture capital financings. The London office also advises on technology transactions, cyber/data/privacy, competition, intellectual property, compensation & benefits, employment and tax matters. Our London-based litigators have one of the most sought-after complex commercial litigation teams in the UK. They have considerable experience in complex domestic and cross-border litigation, international arbitration and reg- ulatory matters. They have handled litigation in all commercial divisions of the English High Court, Court of Appeal, Supreme Court and Court of Justice of the EU and represented clients in all major international arbitration proceedings. We have a wealth of experience in major international asset disputes, includ- ing advising governments on their anti-corruption agencies in seeking to trace, freeze and recover corruptly acquired assets of dishonest public officials, along with advising major private companies. Our fraud team includes a specialist white collar crime partner. The group has one of the UK’s most significant insurance and reinsurance practices, covering complex insurance and reinsurance disputes, run-off and insolvency, arbitra- tion and commercial court litigation. With a client-first approach and an uncompromising focus on the highest levels of knowledge and responsiveness, Cooley’s product compliance and liability team provides a unique level of support for product manufactur- ers navigating the rapidly changing international regulatory and liability risk landscape. Commitment to the community is an important part of our culture at Cooley. We strive to give generously of our time, talents and resources to the commu- nities in which we practice, and pro bono work is one of the primary ways we fulfill that goal. We give pro bono matters the same staffing, attention and resources as other matters. We encourage lawyers in all practice groups and at all levels of practice to be actively involved in our pro bono work.
