- Defence: Criminal and regulatory defence in the event of an external investigation /enforcement activity
- External network: We partner with the lawyers outside of the UK and EU to provide a holistic view of exposure to sanctions / export control related risk, and export control consultants to classify goods, technology and software against the relevant laws in these areas
