International trade matters routinely call for coordinated tax and legal services, and increased trade regulation underscores the importance of compliance plans in helping avoid stiff penalties. With markets in constant flux, you need an adviser who can offer both practical and strategic legal advice wherever your business operations might be.
At Baker & McKenzie, our Global Customs, Trade and VAT team collaborates with colleagues at the local, regional and global levels to offer seamless, comprehensive advice not only on customs and trade regulation but also on a full spectrum of tax and legal concerns, including tax compliance, commercial agreements, trade-related enforcement actions, IP enforcement, consumer protection laws, the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and similar anti-corruption rules of other countries. Operating in global markets means dealing with local complexities. Our lawyers worldwide are strategically situated to help clients develop and execute comprehensive compliance plans, prepare WTO-consistent policy and business strategies, perform compliance audits, conduct compliance and ethics training, and guide clients through investigations, prosecutions or enforcement programs.
