Clifford Chance
We offer clients an internationally integrated team of telecoms experts, working on transactions across the globe and leveraging our local teams based in our offices across Europe, the Middle East, Asia and the Americas.
The telecommunications sector has been undergoing radical transformations across the globe for decades, driven by technological innovation and changing regulatory landscapes. That trend shows no sign of abating and the challenges (and opportunities) in this sector continue to grow.
Yet telcos are not passive in the face of these transformations. Rather, it is the telcos which drive the deployment of new technologies and provide critical infrastructure and platforms for entire ecosystems of innovative businesses. The telcos are the key players at the forefront of the ongoing technological revolution and the new business models it enables.
You need lawyers who reflect the complexity, diversity and innovative spirit of the businesses they represent.
We offer an exceptional network of telecommunications-savvy specialists across many areas of legal practice and across jurisdictions, so you can expect the same world-class service and sector knowledge wherever you do business.
