International Transactions, Litigation, and Regulation

Goldberg Segalla attorneys deeply understand the way new technologies and expanding international markets make it easier for successful businesses to operate beyond their earliest borders. We channel our team’s extensive international business and legal experience into helping clients navigate the host of legal risks and challenges that entering these global markets, full of shifting and overlapping sets of laws and regulations, can present.

Our capabilities in the international arena include:

  • Antitrust and competition law
  • Intellectual property
  • Global Insurance Services
  • Mergers and acquisitions
  • International banking and financing
  • International cyber risks and data breaches
  • Joint ventures
  • Commercial litigation, international arbitrations, and dispute resolution
  • General corporate counsel and strategic planning
  • International hospitality and retail ventures
  • Employment, trade, import/export, and immigration issues
  • International licensing, franchising, contracts, and litigation for sports and entertainment ventures
  • International maritime law

The proficiency of our team in the international business arena stems largely from the extensive in-house experience several of our Corporate Services and Commercial Litigation attorneys have. As one example, a partner on our team spent nearly 20 years as assistant general counsel at a multibillion-dollar global leader in the food service and hospitality industry.

Our skilled practitioners from various practice groups work together to formulate sophisticated, cost-efficient representation and counsel on a wide array of cross-border transactions, as well as international and multinational commercial litigation. Our team takes pride in helping our clients achieve their global objectives while managing litigation costs, other legal expenses, and risk. Companies frequently call on us for counsel on day-to-day issues and assessment of potential business opportunities for hidden risks, regulatory concerns, or other unforeseen challenges.

We understand the unique legal and business challenges facing international companies in this industry, thanks to strong, long-standing relationships with firms in Europe and Asia and a core group of attorneys who appreciate the cultural sensitivities of international business. The language capabilities among our attorneys, which allow us to provide country-specific services, include Albanian, Arabic, Croatian, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Italian, Korean, Malayalam, Mandarin, Marathi, Norwegian, Portuguese, Punjabi, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Tagalog, Tamil, Thai, and Urdu. We are also active in — and recognized leaders within — international law professional organizations and bar associations.
