Allen & Overy has led the market throughout its 80-year history. In 2010 we continue to bring new and original ways of thinking to the most complex legal challenges clients face. So far this year we have acted on the world's largest ever IPO by the Agricultural Bank of China, the first ever PPP project in New Zealand, the largest sukuk to date in 2010, and the largest offshore wind farm in Europe - to name but a few. This combined with having one of the most effective and largest international networks of any law firm - now with 36 offices in 26 countries - allows us to deliver pioneering results on a global scale.

First Counsel provides a uniquely broad range of recruitment services unmatched by any other resourcing company in the legal and professional services market. Clients turn to us for three main reasons: they come to us to recruit partners and associates for private practice; they rely on us to find them the best law firm management professionals and they come to us for first-class in-house counsel. Through effective teamwork, personal service and offices in London and Sydney, we work on projects across the UK, Europe, Middle East and Asia-Pacific to help our clients sustain their success.
