About Norton Rose Fulbright

Norton Rose Fulbright US LLP, Norton Rose Fulbright LLP, Norton Rose Fulbright Australia, Norton Rose Fulbright Canada LLP and Norton Rose Fulbright South Africa Inc are separate legal entities and all of them are members of Norton Rose Fulbright Verein, a Swiss verein. Norton Rose Fulbright Verein helps coordinate the activities of the members but does not itself provide legal services to clients.

References to “Norton Rose Fulbright,” “the law firm,” and “legal practice” are to one or more of the Norton Rose Fulbright members or to one of their respective affiliates (together “Norton Rose Fulbright entity/entities”). That reference does not imply that the Norton Rose Fulbright entities are in partnership together, nor that one Norton Rose Fulbright entity accepts responsibility for the acts or omissions of another, except to the extent that this is agreed expressly in writing in the terms entered into between our client or other contracting party and the relevant Norton Rose Fulbright entity.

Each Norton Rose Fulbright entity provides legal services in particular jurisdictions and is subject to the laws and professional regulations of the particular country or countries in which it operates. Whilst each Norton Rose Fulbright entity will continue to preserve clients’ confidentiality and legal professional privilege, information will be exchanged with other Norton Rose Fulbright entities to check representations by other Norton Rose Fulbright entities and for research, practice management, training and administrative purposes.
