We have a strong global network of associated offices through
our membership of ‘Interleges’ – an international
network of independent law firms – which spans over
20 countries.
There are corresponding offices in other major business centres
worldwide, giving our clients access to a similar range of
legal services to those we provide at our London office, but
tailored to the specific laws and customs of each country.
Clients may either deal direct with our associates abroad
or, if preferred, through a Royds partner who will obtain
the advice needed, and deal with the overseas lawyer on the
client’s behalf.
