Our London office focuses on four of Paul, Weiss’s traditional core corporate practice areas, adapted to the cross-border context: capital markets and securities transactions, listed company mergers and acquisitions, private equity investments and financing transactions. London also serves as a European platform for the firm’s premier Litigation Department, with litigators regularly visiting the office for meetings with clients, depositions and related work. The office works closely with lawyers from the Washington, D.C. and Wilmington offices on antitrust and other regulatory matters, and with the firm’s offices in Tokyo, Hong Kong and Beijing to build on the firm’s long-standing prominence in the Asian legal market. For many transactions involving matters or clients in Europe, the office relies on close, collaborative relationships with leading independent law firms in England and on the continent.
