International

Legal Risk LLP have wide international experience. In 2007-08 we earned 20 per cent of our fees from overseas with clients from the UK to Australia. Our partners have spoken at events in New York, Asia and many European countries.

Clients include international law firms, based both in and outside the UK, offshore firms and Law Societies. We have advised on matters in many European and Asian countries.

International law firms often focus their risk management on their main office but experience shows that other offices can be no less important for these purposes, indeed more so. Insurers are increasingly aware that that may be where problems lie.

Examples of our international work include

• Insurance aspects of transatlantic mergers 
• Insurance issues relating to US law firms 
• Conflicts of interest 
• Risk management reviews on overseas offices 
• Risk management issue on opening new offices and lateral hiring in the Far East 
• Anti-money laundering training
