Norton Rose Fulbright

Norton Rose Fulbright is a global law firm providing a full business law service to major corporations and financial institutions. The firm employs more than 3,700 lawyers across more than 50 cities, with offices spanning Europe, the United States, Canada, Latin America, Asia, Australia, the Middle East and Africa. Its work centres on large, complex, multi-jurisdictional transactions and major projects; the firm has advised on such projects in almost every country in the world.

The practice is organised around sector groups rather than being organised solely by legal discipline. Its principal industry verticals are energy and infrastructure, financial institutions, life sciences and healthcare, technology, transport and consumer markets. Many of the firm's lawyers hold advanced degrees in the technical fields of the sectors they advise on, reflecting a strategy of pairing legal expertise with an understanding of clients' businesses.

For lawyers, the firm's scale and geographic spread mean work that routinely crosses borders and legal systems. The combination of a global network and industry-focused practice is central to how the firm describes its approach, and to its reputation for handling complex cross-border matters wherever clients require them.
