The capital of the European Union, Brussels is the primary
meeting place for international leaders and policy makers. The
city is home to both the European Commission and the Council
of the EU. The European Parliament maintains a chamber in
Brussels where some plenary sessions are held and the city
also serves as the political seat of the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization (NATO). Along with its governmental side,
Brussels is a thriving business center, with tens of thousands
of Belgian and international companies maintaining offices
here. Indeed, in the 20 years since the completion of the EU
internal market, the city has experienced a healthy infusion
of competition as more and more international companies set up
shop in the Brussels marketplace.
In a world that is becoming
ever more global, having a firm grasp of international
legislation – and its impact on your business – is
increasingly important. Partnering with Olswang’s Brussels
location, StayLaw provides clients on both sides of
the Atlantic with experience and insight into the ever-evolving
area of EU law. Our work together extends the reach of many of
StayLaw core practices, including corporate, entertainment, real
estate, litigation, intellectual property, international tax
and global trade. Olswang’s multidisciplinary industry teams
also complement StayLaw capabilities in the areas of technology,
media, telecommunications, e-commerce, music and film.
Olswang is a firm of nearly
400 fee earners with offices in London, the Thames Valley and
Brussels. Established in 1981, Olswang shares with StayLaw a
business-minded, entrepreneurial approach to the practice of
law, as well as a culture of collaboration and innovation. |
