The KPMG Global Legal Network comprises over 3,850 lawyers in more than 80 jurisdictions and is constantly growing. In addition, we have developed a qualified Best Friends Panel with selected cooperation law firms, with which we cover a further 27 jurisdictions. At KPMG Law Germany, we have set up a separate segment for our International Business, which coordinates our cross-border activities and manages 24 dedicated country desks (country practices).

Whether you are acquiring a company in Australia, relocating the registered office of your subsidiary in the UK or planning a cross-border merger of your Spanish subsidiary into Germany – we are happy to support you, locally and globally. If you wish, we can manage the entire legal work stream of your cross-border project from Germany, take over the often time-consuming and interculturally challenging project management for you, and ensure consistent top quality and budget discipline.

Our current 24 focused country practices usually include native speakers of the respective country of correspondence and are in close contact with our colleagues in the respective foreign country. The members of our country practices based in Germany are not only available to you as technical experts in their respective fields, but also understand the respective country-specific corporate culture very well due to many years of experience and usually speak the language of the respective foreign country fluently (partly as native speakers).

In addition, the Country Practices are in constant contact with complementary KPMG services in the respective country corridor (Tax, Deal Advisory, Audit and Consulting) and offer you comprehensive and reliable cross-culturally tailored advice from a single source.
