European Alliance with Pinsent Masons

The Pinsent Masons Luther Group’s offering in Europe is a compelling proposition for clients seeking the best local know-how, combined with an extensive international capability.

As the driving force behind the association, founder members, Pinsent Masons and Luther represent the largest firms in PMLG. Pinsent Masons is a top 15 UK law firm, with over 250 partners and 1,000 lawyers worldwide; Luther is the 13th largest law firm in Germany and the second biggest independent in the German market. Formerly associated with Ernst & Young, Luther and Ernst & Young relinquished formal ties in December 2006 post Sarbanes-Oxley, but still retain a strong working relationship.

PMLG also includes, in France, Granrut, in Austria, Karasek Wietzryk, in Hungary Gobert, Fest & Partners Attorneys at Law, and three firms based in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania trading under the banner ‘Baltic Legal Solutions’. In total, the association comprises over 360 partners operating out of 35, offices across Europe. PMLG is further augmented by well established ‘best friends’ arrangements with other lawfirms across Europe.

Member firms have a strong track-record of collaborative working, with particular synergies in Corporate, IP/IT, PPP/Projects, Competition, Employment and Real Estate, Banking & Finance and Dispute Resolution. The association formalises existing relationships between the participating firms, which will henceforth work together on an exclusive basis.
