Brexit

The UK has left the EU, single market and customs union. This impacts how solicitors and law firms provide services and their establishment within the EU, the EEA and Switzerland: they are now subject to 31 different regulatory regimes, one for each jurisdiction. It also has consequences for solicitors travelling to the EU on business; immigration to and from the EU; civil and commercial judicial cooperation; EU legal professional privilege; practice areas such as intellectual property and family law; anti-money laundering; and VAT.
