SouthBank Legal assists multinationals with their international operations, providing compliance advice and risk management guidance to support our clients’ existing business and enable expansion into new markets.

SouthBank Legal’s Global Compliance team helps our clients manage business risks and global relationships by providing sophisticated and cost-effective compliance solutions, including program and policy assessments, investigations, issue mitigations, and regulatory negotiations and resolutions. Our lawyers routinely handle complex, high-profile international compliance matters for name-brand, Fortune 500 companies, including those looking to grow internationally through acquisitions and joint ventures.

We help major US corporations gain competitive advantage on the international stage by providing sophisticated, swift, and cost-effective internal investigations that uncover and mitigate risk. As former prosecutors, senior in-house counsel, and big-firm lawyers, we know that speed and efficiency can provide a competitive advantage. As both legal advisors and business partners, we work as an extension of clients’ internal legal teams, delivering on our commitments while always striving to achieve the larger goal.

SouthBank Legal provides business advice that advances clients’ business goals and aligns with their organizational cultures. Our practice is global and our industry experience is multidisciplinary. Clients rely on us to design, test, and enhance their compliance programs; assess risks and conduct third-party and transactional due diligence; and conduct investigations globally, assisting with remediation and regulatory engagement as necessary.

We partner with clients’ in-house legal teams to design and deliver bespoke solutions that meet their needs with great efficiency. Our lean staffing model and exceptional responsiveness ensure that we deliver advice at the speed of business. We will work independently, as an extension of our client’s in-house teams, or in virtual partnership with larger firms—in all cases focused on providing innovative yet practical solutions.
