Linklaters

We build lasting relationships with our clients, and we are committed to supporting them at all times, as they adjust to changes in their markets and the regulatory landscape.

We hire talented, globally-minded individuals from many different backgrounds, but we all hold certain values and ambitions in common. We are committed to continuous improvement in ourselves and we are motivated to deliver excellent results for our clients. We enjoy working together in a spirit of trust and co-operation, across national borders and disciplines, to achieve remarkable and sometimes unprecedented things on the world stage.

Creating a diverse, inclusive culture remains a key objective and a huge challenge. We have made a start, but have a long way to go. Local working groups with action plans have been established in the UK, US, Brussels and Hong Kong, which has resulted in greater awareness, training and networking. We continue to talk to our clients and other law firms who face similar issues to learn from them and work together. As a premium global business law firm, we affect society and the environment through the work we do for our clients, which facilitates trade and investment, as well as through the way we treat our people, run our operations and manage our community investment programmes. We also influence the evolution of legal and regulatory frameworks and advise on proposed changes. We are proud to be the only law firm to have benchmarked our performance globally against the Business in the Community Corporate Responsibility Index and to have achieved the Silver level.
