Ius Laboris
Businesses are increasingly operating internationally. This involves co-ordinating their people in multiple jurisdictions while having to respect distinct rules on employment and benefits law in each. That's why using legal experts with knowledge and experience - both international and local - is essential for businesses of all sizes.

Lewis Silkin's membership of 
Ius Laboris, the international alliance of leading employment, employee benefits and pensions law firms, enables us to provide a unique and truly global solution. Ius Laboris covers all legal services related to HR and is the largest group of independent and specialist lawyers ever brought together within this practice area. The alliance includes over 2,500 of the world's best human resources law practitioners with member firms in 45 countries and coverage in over 100 countries.

Members of the alliance also work closely with recommended firms in territories where there is not yet a member firm - including emerging markets - to provide a seamless international platform. The alliance has a proven track record of advising major internaitional employers on multi-jurisdiction projects from restructuring and outsourcing to data protection and privacy.

In a recent survey by Practical Law Company (PLC), the global employment law offering of international legal firms was ranked according to how highly recommended they were by in-house counsel and other law firms. Recommendations were sought for both the firms and the individual employment experts practising within them.

Not only was Lewis Silkin 'highly recommended' for employment law, but the
Ius Laboris firms taken together amassed an amazing 235 points, outperforming the nearest rival which was awarded just 102 points.
