Consistent quality

The 2022 Chambers Guide has recognized the outstanding quality of Lex Mundi’s member firms. It is an elite grouping of law firms, and every member firm comes under regular review. Expertise is deployed on the ground in relevant jurisdictions, not centralized in a distant HQ.

Consistent service

Lex Mundi’s renowned quality standards are supplemented by documented and standardized processes and procedures across multi-jurisdictional teams with associated training. All are designed to ensure consistency of service and client experience across multiple jurisdictions.

Coverage

Lex Mundi has more lawyers, more offices and is in more jurisdictions than any single law firm. That geographical presence can be tailored to perfectly match the footprint of the client or transaction with high-quality on-the-ground resources.

Convenience

Lex Mundi Equisphere can be accessed and managed from anywhere through a single point of contact – either your existing Lex Mundi member firm relationship partner or a Lex Mundi Global Markets team member.
