International Legal Advice

The International Team here at Fisher Jones Greenwood, has over 20 years experience in providing a wide range of international services. We act for businesses and individuals based in the UK and overseas.

Fisher Jones Greenwood is based in Essex and London, one of the fastest-growing regions in the UK.

Opportunities for foreign nationals and inward investors to settle and expand in the region are therefore continually growing. Our International Team are experienced in assisting foreign nationals and businesses both settle in and exploit the opportunities in the UK. We understand the transition in working and residing in different cultures can be daunting and our aim is to ensure that clients can do so as smoothly as possible whilst catering for their business and legal needs.

We also offer services to UK based businesses and individuals involved in activities and disputes in other jurisdictions. With the current global financial crisis, it is increasingly important for such businesses and individuals to seek legal advice in order to minimise their risks when dealing with overseas activities.
