LAWorld is a international network of full-service independent commercial law firms, whose members provide international expert legal advice. LAWorld was founded in Europe in 1997. Members share many characteristics. Most are medium sized, with the ability to devote personal attention to their clients and many are active in the International Bar Association. All have broadly based commercial, corporate and business practices; litigation capabilities; international, as well as domestic practices; a strong commitment to the use of the latest technology and English-speaking lawyers.

LAWorld members pledge to maintain the highest standards of legal services to clients and to promote an excellent performance from all partners and staff.

Each member firm is dedicated to providing clients with high-quality legal services. It is particularly directed towards the business community. Clients can expect uniformly high standards of professional service from LAWorld members.

With members in most key commercial European centres, the Middle East, Asia Pacific and The Americas, LAWorld law firms are able to meet the international legal demands of commercial clients, whilst maintaining high standards of integrity and personal service.

For substantial or highly complex international transactions, teams of experts from member firms can combine to provide larger and corporate clients with the depth of international legal knowledge and resources required.

The diversity of member firms within the network provides clients with access to a wide range of specialisms, language skills, expertise in local jurisdiction and local coverage of courts.

Member firms are able to access local laws and trading practices abroad as required by their clients.

As a network which embraces modern technology including the internet, LAWorld members demonstrate modern attitudes towards business. Members are comfortable with the benefits and advantages of corresponding through email and the net to provide speedy efficient communication between each other and the wider international business community.

LAWorld law firms exchange information about developments in areas of the law with cross-border interest i.e. trades, joint ventures, corporate acquisitions and investments.
