Knowledge is the key to providing effective legal advice. Solid specialist skills and insight into distinctive business sectors combined with international experience enables us to put together high-potential teams of experts.
Across all areas of commercial law you can be certain that Hammonds’ advisers are outstandingly qualified in their respective fields and are always on top of the latest legal developments. This involves not only specialist expertise but also requires our lawyers to be fully versant with the business of our clients whether they be service providers, utilities, public bodies, media or IT companies. Hammonds’ lawyers are widely experienced and have first class references. Our stringent selection procedure and ongoing professional development programmes ensure that the highest levels of competence are maintained at all times.
Despite this degree of specialisation, Hammonds is not an ivory tower. It is each lawyer’s task to find effective solutions to our clients’ problems. Well co-ordinated groups of specialists from the various practice areas work together to achieve this aim. This is why we lay great emphasis on team attitude and interdisciplinary thinking.
Possessing comprehensive knowledge in one particular area does not, however, compensate for deficits in another. Hammonds is a full-service law firm for this reason. Because we have lawyers specialising in various legal fields, we are fully able to cover the major areas of commercial law. The resources we have at our disposal mean that we are ideally placed to provide our clients with tailor-made teams of advisors.
Business knows no boundaries, nor do we. With around 850 lawyers, Hammonds is one of the largest commercial law firms in Europe. We have offices in key European jurisdictions and in China, which allows us to ensure that our clients receive the level of service they are accustomed to for transactions both at home and abroad.
