Overview

CMS United Kingdom is a member of CMS, which provides clients with specialist, business- focused advice in law and tax matters. Our 3,000 legal professionals across the world, working in sector-based teams and trained in project management, are focused on our clients and fulfilling their objectives. CMS lawyers operate in 59 offices worldwide, offering real-world advice to clients operating in a challenging business climate and a fast-changing regulatory environment.

Our corporate lawyers provide advice across all types of commercial law; banking and finance, competition, corporate and M&A, dispute resolution, employment & pensions, environment, intellectual property, private equity, public procurement, real estate and tax.

With our focus on client service, we were one of the first corporate law firms to embrace the need to also structure our business along industry sector group lines. We have eight industry sector groups; consumer products, energy, hotels & leisure, infrastructure & project finance, insurance and funds, lifesciences, real estate & construction and technology, media & telecoms.

Our practice and sector group matrix enables us to develop a comprehensive understanding of our clients’ businesses and markets and to constantly deliver sound and commercially relevant advice from any of our offices. We focus on relationships, not deals, and we are considered more approachable and accessible than many of our competitors. Our clients tell us they like working with us and that we’re often seen as the human face of the law.

As a major commercial law firm, we have responsibilities that extend beyond our client work. We are transparent about our approach to environmental management and we are proud of our community schemes across all of our offices.
