Advoc - International network of independent law firms
Advoc is a global network of independent law firms which provide clients with commercially oriented services in whichever jurisdiction they need support. Each of the member firms is known and respected within its region and is committed to respond immediately to the needs of clients of other firms.

Each of the member firms has detailed information on the experience and special knowledge of all the member firms. This means that if your business is exporting or setting up shop in another country, you can quickly be connected to a reputable and knowledgeable lawyer 'on the ground' in that jurisdiction.

In addition to these organisations we have good relationships with several mainly Australian law firms and can quickly organise referrals to trusted allies in support of any Trans-Tasman legal requirements.
