Reinhart's International Practice Offers Complimentary Guide for Foreign Investors

MILWAUKEE – As the global economy continues to grow, so does the acumen, business experience and service offerings of Reinhart Boerner Van Deuren s.c.'s International Practice. To help engage foreign investors interested in doing business in the U.S., Reinhart has developed a complimentary publication to help guide them.

Reinhart's "A Guide Detailing the Most Important Legal Considerations for Foreign Investors in the United States" introduces foreign investors and their legal counsel to the types of legal considerations and issues that are most likely to be important to them in importing their products, establishing a new operation, purchasing an existing operation, and operating safely and successfully in the U.S. market.

Editor of the guide and Chair of Reinhart's International Practice, Robert J. Misey, Jr., says: "We have the jurisdictional connections necessary to help our clients grow their businesses in the U.S. or any political or economic system. This guide helps demonstrate our knowledge and experience with international business, tax and immigration laws."

While the Guide does not itemize every legal matter a foreign investor might confront, in it Reinhart provides key information about:

• Important U.S. legal issues that every foreign investor should understand
• Issues an investor or a foreign lawyer accustomed to another business culture and another legal system may find surprising or unexpected, such as the ease with which a foreigner can be found liable for damages, the extent of liability, the nature of the subject matter being regulated, etc.
• Common issues that investors may find to be virtually unavoidable

"Our clients from around the globe choose us because of the world class service we provide and Midwest value," continues Misey. "From our Milwaukee headquarters, and our other office locations, we provide international-related legal services in over half of the United States. We have demonstrated that it's not necessary for a firm to be based on either coast or in Chicago to provide the knowledge needed to invest in the U.S. We're pleased that interest in the guide and our service offerings has been outstanding."

Reinhart's reputation and presence in the international community continues to increase as the firm explores new markets and continues to develop existing relationships. Misey, a recognized speaker on international issues, recently spoke at the ABA Section of the International Law Spring Meeting on "Advanced Pricing Agreements and Other Practical Solutions to Global Transfer Pricing Problems."

Further, Richard W. Graber recently ended his tenure as the U.S. Ambassador to the Czech Republic and has rejoined Reinhart to practice law and assist U.S. clients who wish to do business in Europe as well as foreign companies who wish to expand their trade with the U.S. Additionally, Delos N. Lutton, a current shareholder, is a former President of the Union Internationale des Avocats – a legal association with nearly two million lawyers as well as several thousand individual members from over 110 countries.
