Silicon Valley

Our US team are able to provide practical on-the-ground European legal advice and strategic support to our US clients in their time-zone.  While we do not practice US law, our team of legal specialists bring a deep understanding of US businesses, the market and industry dynamics, enabling them to provide tailored, commercially relevant advice to US businesses expanding to or doing business in Europe. We have specialists in tech, data privacy, AI, digital regulation, employment, corporate and international expansion and growth. This means our clients are able to secure top-tier European legal advice, leveraging the depth of expertise offered by both the local team and by Fieldfisher across Europe.

Situated in the heart of the Silicon Valley, we bring the breadth of Fieldfisher's European-wide offering closer to our US clients. We have a deep bench of European legal specialists in the team and can also facilitate access to Fieldfisher's wider European offices (in the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Ireland, Luxembourg, Austria, Spain, Portugal, Poland, the Netherlands and Belgium), as well as our offices in China, to find our clients the right specialist.

Whether you need support with employment law issues, setting up a presence in Europe or advice on online safety, GDPR, cyber security, AI governance or EU marketing, our lawyers have excellent sector experience complemented by a deep understanding of the challenges faced by US businesses operating in Europe.

It’s not just about providing cutting-edge advice; it’s about taking the time to develop exceptional working relationships with our clients. We are flexible, personable and have moulded our business strategy around helping our clients succeed overseas.

Our team always strives to deliver practical, clear and tailor-made advice to help our clients achieve their goals and effectively manage risks whilst exporting their business from the US to Europe.
