THE FIRM Hogan Lovells is a new law firm built on the foundations of the previous success of two firms, Hogan & Hartson and Lovells.Hogan Lovells provides the breadth of business-oriented legal advice and highquality service that clients have come to expect through working with both founding firms. In a world where both business risks and business opportunities are continuously evolving, Hogan Lovells believes that there is a need for a high-quality international law firm that sees the whole picture and is dedicated and geared to helping clients across the spectrum of their critical business and legal issues. Hogan Lovells is a firm that is strong and deeply rooted in the largest and most developed markets in the US and Europe, and also has an established presence in the fastest growing regions of the world, including Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East. The firm’s combination of broad and deep transactional and dispute resolution capabilities enables Hogan Lovells to act on the largest and most complex transactions and cases around the world, along with an exceptional regulatory practice, and world leading IP and commercial law capabilities. These distinctive characteristics provide Hogan Lovells with insights into the issues that affect the firm’s clients most deeply, and allow the firm to keep its finger on the pulse of the market. Hogan Lovells exists to help clients with all their most important matters around the world. The firm believes that its ability to see business from all perspectives allows it to help clients effectively in today’s – and tomorrow’s – challenging business climate. Hogan Lovells’ commercial and regulatory work gives the firm the insights and business edge that complements its work on transactions and disputes. Hogan Lovells listens to its clients, tailoring advice based on a deep understanding of their needs. This, combined with the firm’s knowledge of markets and industry sectors, provides the foundation for Hogan Lovells’ advice. The firm provides a partner-led service to ensure the highest quality. However, the firm has a track record in finding cost-effective answers and have put in place, for some projects, a process that has involved outsourcing some of the less challenging work to lower cost jurisdictions and, in some cases, to third parties. Hogan Lovells’ culture is underpinned by shared values, already strongly established in the predecessor firms.
These are:
¤ Clients come first
¤ Excellence in all the firm does
¤ One team worldwide
¤ Commitment to the firm’s success
¤ Good citizenship
All this is achieved with the close involvement of the client and with the firm taking responsibility for the work.
