Taylor Wessing is a global law firm that serves the world's most innovative people and businesses.
Deeply embedded within our sectors, we work closely together with our clients to crack complex problems, enabling ideas and aspirations to thrive.
Together we challenge expectation and create extraordinary results.
We are one of the most connected law firms ingrained in the technology, media and communications sectors. From seed stage to IPO, and from startup to unicorn, we're one of the few firms who can support companies throughout their lifecycle.
Our Life Sciences & Healthcare team guides clients through the many different, interlinking legal and commercial challenges that they face in these dynamic and highly regulated industries.
Our international Private Wealth group has been recognised as a market leader for many years. We are one of the few international law firms able to provide a fully integrated legal service that addresses clients' business, investment and personal interests.
Through creating our unique Real Estate, Infrastructure & Energy sector group, we are consolidating our broad cross-border strength and significant industry expertise in a single centre of excellence. We bring a one-team mindset and approach where it is needed for this cross-sector focus.
As a full-service international law firm we offer a wide range of services and sector expertise.
Our international team has an outstanding record in cross-border M&A. We support clients on deals of all shapes and sizes, and act on private capital investment work from set-up and early-stage funding to growth capital and private equity. We solve complicated issues with ease and make your deal a seamless experience.
Almost every business has commercially sensitive information, personal data or big datasets underpinning its assets, revenue and growth strategy. Our specialist data protection and cyber team has over 20 years' experience and is one of the biggest in Europe.
We represent global businesses and high net worth individuals on the successful resolution of complex and high-value commercial disputes and investigations. We work closely with our clients not only to resolve disputes – whether through litigation, arbitration or regulatory processes – but to proactively avoid them in the first place.
Employment, pensions & mobility laws are all areas that have become increasingly topical and often are key to brand value. Our international network of lawyers will help guide you towards this future, and manage the impact of today’s employment, pensions and immigration legislation on your businesses.
With one of the largest teams in Europe, we provide IP advice to clients from a broad range of sectors and are highly rated across all IP specialisms.
We advise on all manner of real estate transactions, from high-profile acquisitions and disposals to pan European portfolios, to highly structured corporate transactions, to large scale development schemes, to the financing of all these and more.
