Our Focus
Established in 1988, our London office provides English and U.S. legal advice to U.K., U.S. and international market-leading public and private companies, investors and financial services institutions. Located in the heart of the City of London, our London office has a number of highly successful practices whose lawyers have been recognized as leaders in their fields by publications including Chambers & Partners UK, Legal 500 UK and IFLR1000. Our London team is fully integrated and works closely with our offices in the U.S. and continental Europe on many complex international matters and transactions.
In order to support our growing practice areas, we have fully integrated and established teams in London covering Accounts, Facilities, Graduate Recruitment, Human Resources (including Learning & Development), Library Services, Marketing & Business Development and Reception, and our skilled Legal Secretarial Team.
We have a well-established Apprenticeship Programme, with at least one apprentice recruited annually since 2017. We view our apprentices as part of our success and recruit with a view to train our apprentices for a long-term career at Willkie.
