We know that flexibility is so often the key to commercial success.
The ability to quickly and cost-effectively hire from overseas, or relocate your employees across the world - and across legal jurisdictions - can give your business a vital competitive advantage. Unfortunately, moving employees usually means negotiating some difficult legal obstacles. Varying visa and immigration requirements, tax and social security issues, employment laws and compensation and benefits plans can all present substantial challenges.
Our global mobility and business immigration lawyers are located around the world, and have experience advising multinational Fortune 500 and FTSE-listed businesses on relocating employees across a wide range of sectors. We’ll help you do the same, as quickly and painlessly as possible. Our seamless approach to international transfers helps ensure your executive agreements and policies are robust, and all tax planning and reporting requirements are taken care of.
We will also help you come up with a holistic strategy for the future, so you’re ready as soon as relocating employees to a new market becomes necessary. In an environment of tightening law enforcement on immigration, our lawyers will work with you to design, implement and manage global mobility programs. We’ll guide you through the legal and administrative obstacles so your employees can get on with their work right away, and help your business to thrive.
