CMS is a Future Facing organisation of independent law firms. With more than 80 offices in over 40 countries and 9,800+ staff worldwide, we combine deep local market understanding with a global perspective, giving us the ability not only to see what’s coming, but to shape it.
As a law firm, our people are our most important asset and delivering world-class service to our clients our business priority. We aspire to build ever stronger relationships and trust with our people, clients and communities to change the future face of law and lead the sector on diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging.
We can all shape the future of law
It’s all about relationships. Our relationship with you, your relationship with us, and the relationships we have with clients and the communities around us. We want you to thrive and show your personality. Foster community, work together, listen, be open, and help each other succeed. Act with purpose and find passion. Strive for progress and embrace challenges. Seek out different ways of thinking and doing.
Hear directly from our people.
The scale and scope of the global challenges our society faces today, and in the future, are enormous – from the climate crisis to inequality. Guided by the UN Sustainable Development Goals and our commitment to the UN Global Compact, we collaborate with our stakeholders and use our talents, reach and resources to make a positive impact in the communities where we live and work.
We’re proud of who we are, of what we’ve achieved and of all the people who play a part in our success. It’s incredibly rewarding when our collective achievements are recognised externally too. Here are some of our recent accolades.
