Following the successful completion of the combination between Herbert Smith Freehills and Kramer Levin on 1 June 2025, our combined team now spans three regions: Asia and Australia; Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and the UK; and the US. With our extensive footprint across the world's largest markets, we are excited to be working together as a global group.

Our complementary practice areas include private capital; investment; development; land use/planning; financing; environmental; disputes/litigation and much more.

Our combined practice will make us the only firm with top tier Chambers Real Estate rankings in the US, UK and Australia, three of the world's largest real estate markets.

As a truly global firm, we can now do so much more for our clients with our new scale and reach. As Justin D'Agostino, Global CEO of Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer, has commented:

"In today’s fast-evolving and uncertain macroeconomic landscape, clients need a truly global law firm with deep local insight across all their key markets. Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer is uniquely positioned to deliver exceptional outcomes in an increasingly complex and interconnected world."
