Established over 30 years ago to meet the increasing demands of clients who needed support with cross border transactions and disputes within the EU, Law Europe (as it then was) created a network of reliable and trusted law firms throughout Europe.
Today, the network is able to offer clients a personal, cost-effective and partner-led service provided by over 800 locally qualified lawyers.
The increasingly international activities of member firm clients led Law Europe to seek members around the world, and to reflect this, the name of the network changed to LEInternational (LEI).
From the outset, LEI has remained a strong, closely-knit group of law firms that has provided real benefits to its members and their clients when they have required high quality and responsive legal assistance in a foreign jurisdiction.
Working together, LEI members have gained substantial experience in many sectors and industries, including cross-border dispute resolution, international contracts, mergers and acquisitions, real estate, intellectual property and employment law.
Clients that have benefited from LEI’s members’ cross-border connections range from individuals to small, medium and large corporations. The close working relationships that exist between members, together with the cost-effectiveness of the services provided by them, are key factors that make LEI unique.
LEI’S MISSION IS TO HELP MEMBER FIRMS PROVIDE HIGH QUALITY LEGAL SERVICES TO THEIR CLIENTS THROUGH AN INTERNATIONAL NETWORK OF LAW FIRMS.
