Helping to put the UK on the Global map, legally speaking!

9th November 2023 | Paul Marmor | International, Alliott Global Alliance, Webinar

Paul Marmor, Head of Dispute Resolution and International, participated in an international webinar hosted by Mike Freer MP of the Ministry of Justice, alongside Mark Burkett of the Department for Business and Trade, Marco Cillario of The Law Society, Sarah Murray of Stevens & Bolton, and Christi Jackson of Laura Devine Immigration.

Paul Marmor spoke about his involvement in developing Sherrards’ international persona, passing on the benefit of his experiences to an audience predominantly from the legal profession, looking to expand their international footprint.

In particular, Paul used the international webinar to speak about our work with an international alliance (Alliott Global Alliance) and our connectivity with other first-class law firms through the International Bar Association and American Bar Association, as well as working alongside The Law Society’s International Division and the Department for International Trade, including becoming part of the UK investment support directory hosted by the DIT.

Marco Cillario, International Policy Manager of The Law Society commented, “We are ready and willing to shout about the legal profession and to help our members, whether to improve access to key markets, facilitate introductions to networking opportunities with contacts across the world, or to create the right environment to do so ”.

Paul Marmor of Sherrards comments, “It’s been quite a journey for the firm, but in 20 years we have helped our clients and contacts with their increasing needs overseas, as well as the burgeoning demand for use of the UK courts by foreign parties.  I have no doubt that our legal profession is supported by some brilliant institutions, whether it be the Ministry of Justice, the Department for Business and Trade or The Law Society’s International Division”.
