Europe
Overview
Europe operates under a structure where the EU single market and individual country regulations overlap, requiring sophisticated regulatory analysis from the transaction design stage. Horizontal regulations covering competition law, data, trade, and tax apply uniformly across various industries, and risks can cascade in a chain reaction. The LIN Europe team provides two-way (Outbound/Inbound) support covering both European investment and transactions and inbound matters involving Korea. Building on collaboration with leading local law firms and multilingual capabilities, we deliver consistent services from negotiation and due diligence through to dispute resolution. We back our clients' European business with execution-oriented advisory that satisfies both regulatory compliance and business pace.
