Taylor Wessing is a global law firm that serves the world’s most innovative people and businesses. We work across Europe, the Middle East, the USA and Asia with 28 offices in 17 jurisdictions, and more than 1,200 lawyers around the world. Our clients range from global brands and institutions to pension funds, entrepreneurs, investors and high net worth individuals and family offices. We help clients invest, expand business internationally, manage risk and safeguard their assets.

We’ve worked with Israeli clients for many years and understand Israel and Israeli business. We focus our Israeli activities on four of the country’s most dynamic sectors: high-tech, life sciences and healthcare, real estate, and banking. These are fields in which we have internationally recognised depth and market leading expertise.

While we do not practice Israeli law, across our international offices we can advise you on a full range of legal services. We are particularly strong in Venture Capital, M&A, real estate investment and development, regulation, banking, litigation and arbitration and intellectual property. Our patents team, for example, has unrivalled expertise in advising clients in technology-rich industries, such as pharmaceuticals and electronics. Our market-leading international private wealth group complements these services by offering the best support to high net worth individuals and family offices on their personal and business interests.

Our Israel Group includes several fluent Hebrew speakers with extensive experience of working alongside clients in Israel. Through regular local contact and visits we have built up close working relationships with some of the best Israeli law firms and accountants and have strong ties to leading local intermediaries and industry associations. When combined with our own services, we can offer clients broad and integrated support delivered to the highest standard.

Our Israel Group is led by Josef Fuss. Josef advises investors, companies, entrepreneurs and management teams on all aspects of M&A and Venture Capital. He acts as international point of contact for our Israeli clients looking for assistance to expand globally and he also supports international clients looking to access our firm’s local contact network and exploit Israel’s market opportunities.
