Affilia redefines its service offering to meet the needs of today\u2019s evolving legal market.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Montreal, July 22, 2024 \u2013 Legal firm CMKZ is transforming to become Affilia Legal LLP, a firm exclusively dedicated to international trade and business law. This structural, organizational and branding change is aimed at meeting the evolving needs of internationally driven enterprises who seek greater local access to overseas and trans-border expertise. Affilia’s decision to dedicate itself exclusively to international trade and business law was conceived after a thorough internal and external strategic review of the firm’s business approach and purpose. Client feedback indicated that internationally oriented businesses are currently missing the cultivation of sustainable legal relationships and the ability of legal professionals to orient towards broader goals and perspectives in an increasingly complex global economy. Affilia is introducing a team of attorneys renowned for their expertise and dedication to client service. The firm will also tap into a network of experts it has developed to address specialized legal matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs a firm focused on international businesses, we understand the unique and complex challenges and requirements faced today by local clients conducting business on the world stage. This is why we have decided to dedicate ourselves to track the many issues that impact international business and trade in real time and provide our customers with the tools and expertise they need to flourish. Our collaborative approach creates sustainable value, leverages innovation, and ensures we are acting fully aligned,\u201d says Bernard Colas, LLD, Ad.E., Co-Managing Partner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Affilia\u2019s added and unique suite of legal services, including strategic advising, customized legal support, and training sessions, directly addresses the needs of businesses looking to remain competitive through sustainable growth and navigation of complex international regulatory landscapes. For example, emerging challenges, such as economic sanctions, ESG matters, and threats to supply chains, are particularly concerning. The firm\u2019s multilingual team understands international treaties and regulations, supporting clients at every stage of commercial development and helping them meet the demands of stakeholders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur legal approach is uniquely configured to empower clients to implement optimal governance and corporate structuring, maximizing value and minimizing risk,\u201d says Sabrina Leung, LL.M., Co-Managing Partner. Affilia serves emerging companies and visionary entrepreneurs, providing reliable, knowledgeable, and pragmatic legal support for international expansion or integration of foreign investment into the Canadian market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A second pillar of Affilia\u2019s transformation is the application of cutting-edge technology to offer clients 24\/7 access to business and corporate legal information, ensuring swift legal assistance and anticipating client needs. Today\u2019s international business environment is much faster paced than ever, so Affilia\u2019s comprehensive services are tailored to meet today\u2019s new international business realities and include intellectual property management and real-time trademark status tracking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
