Lex Mundi and Professionalism: A Statement of Shared Fundamental ValuesNEW!
Professionalism is a distinctive set of fundamental values that shape the practices of the best law firms and lawyers around the world, including Lex Mundi member firms. Because these values are, however, abstract and sometimes difficult to express, Lex Mundi has undertaken an effort to develop a practical understanding of the guiding principles that law firms of significant prominence aspire to embody. This Statement of Shared Fundamental Values was developed by Lex Mundi to assist and encourage its member firms, as well as all firms that practice at the highest level, as they strive to embody these values in their practices.


Lex Mundi/InsideCounsel Special Resource Sections
Since 2004, Lex Mundi and its member firms have produced special resource sections for InsideCounsel Magazine.  Each section focuses on a specific geographic region and discusses an important legal topic of interest in regards to a particular area of practice.  **The special resource section featured in the magazine’s December 2008 issue focuses on Pre-Merger Notification in Europe in regards to medium-size companies and the merger control issues involved.
