Sherrards has been officially welcomed into the Department for Business & Trade’s prestigious UK Investment Support Directory, following a successful application and invitation to join this select group of trusted advisors.

The Directory, which is hosted by the Department for Business & Trade (“DBT”) lists a select group of companies with expertise in helping overseas businesses to establish, develop and expand their footprint in the UK.

The searchable directory connects international investors with businesses across the UK, which provide services key to helping a business set up or expand their operations, including experts in accountancy, law, consultancy and recruitment among others.

Potential foreign investors are able to tailor their search for support to source experts by industry, region, business experience and language expertise.

Sherrards has been featured in the directory since it was launched in 2019, but periodically is invited to re-apply for membership, which cannot be taken for granted, and the news has just come through that our most recent application has been successful, for which we are very grateful to the UK Government and DBT.

Paul Marmor, Head of International and Litigation, comments: “We are about helping inbound businesses find their feet and connect to the right legal disciplines, and we have a great team catering for foreign businesses and individuals moving over to the UK, where they need assistance and support in the areas of immigration law, corporate, intellectual property, employment/labour law and indeed real estate.  Where additional professional input is needed, we collaborate with trusted partners to ensure seamless support to assist in a move to the UK.  We are delighted that we continue to be a member of the DBT’s UK Investment Support Directory.”
