YOUR CAREER AT Shearman & Sterling LLP
The Global Firm
Shearman & Sterling is one of a select few firms with a truly international practice, one in which global teams work together on cross-border matters. Our lawyers often find themselves in Hong Kong, London and other major cities around the world, closing a multi-national merger or collaborating on an international restructuring. Shearman & Sterling was one of the first firms to internationalize. Our long multi-jurisdictional history and experience set our firm - and our lawyers - apart. We are committed to providing this experience to our lawyers throughout their careers with the firm.
