Grow your business with GRATA International
Grow your business with GRATA International

ANDREW GAMBLE, CHAIRMAN OF THE GLOBAL BOARD «GRATA INTERNATIONAL»
«GRATA was born out of the significant political and economic changes that took place at the beginning of the 1990’s. It was a new law firm for a new world. The globalised economy that has emerged over the past 30 years has meant that there is increased trade and integration between countries and across borders; businesses need no longer limit themselves to the constraints of their home nation. From its inception, GRATA recognised this, opening offices and forming partnerships with law firms in a variety of different jurisdictions in its region. GRATA International is founded on the principles of communication, co-operation and high common standards which are applied throughout all its offices. It is a trusted business partner and legal adviser in all the jurisdictions in which it operates stretching from Eastern Europe to the Far East. On any deal, GRATA International is able to call upon its shared Know-how, legal expertise and depth of resources in all the GRATA International offices and apply them, in a focussed and wholly client-centric manner, to achieve a successful outcome».
