Firm’s third hub after Glasgow and Brisbane to provide support across managed services, due diligence, disputes and contract management. Ashurst has expanded its new law offering with the launch of a global delivery centre (GDC) in Krakow, Poland.
The centre will be the firm’s third after its GDCs in Glasgow and Brisbane and will expand its Ashurst Advance offering with the introduction of a delivery team based in continental Europe.
“There has been a significant change in what clients expect from their legal advisers over recent years, further fuelled by the macroeconomic environment and increased globalisation,” Ashurst’s global CEO, Paul Jenkins said. “The drive to provide more for less, combined with the emergence and increased adoption of legaltech, has led to an increased demand for legal services innovation and forward-thinking solutions.”
Global co-head of Ashurst Advance, Hilary Goodier, said: “We are excited to expand our global footprint with the launch of our third GDC. Having a global platform operating across Glasgow, Brisbane and now Krakow, will allow the firm to provide innovative services and solutions to our clients wherever they are located.
“Through this new GDC we will also broaden our European language capabilities, ensuring our team is well-equipped to continue to meet the diverse needs of our clients across the continent and beyond.”
Chris Georgiou, global co-head of Ashurst Advance, said: “Opening a new global delivery centre requires the mobilisation of a skilled and scalable team, and Elevate’s advice and execution has allowed us to do just that.”
