Higher education is one of the UK’s strongest exports. A university’s ability to continue to attract higher education international students, whilst successfully pursuing commercial opportunities through collaboration with overseas institutions and other partners, has become critical in the global education sector.
Operating in an international higher education market brings with it significant challenges and issues. As one of the UK’s leading international education law firms, we have extensive experience in multi-jurisdictional matters, advising both UK and overseas-based clients.
We’re a UK and Ireland firm with international reach. We’re equally happy to work alongside your existing overseas team of advisors or leverage our extensive international network of law firms to find local counsel aligned to your business needs and objectives.
We work with a hand-picked selection of international partners to help meet our clients' international business needs and aspirations. For more information on how we can help your institution please contact us.
