One of the projects that LEGALINK member firms regularly undertake are cross border questionnaires about legal issues around the world. The latest edition focuses on public procurement and is available on-line at http://publicprocurement.questionnaire.legalink.ch. The project “Public Procurement: Guidelines for contracts with public authorities” was coordinated by Markus Jakoby, from Jakoby Rechtsanwälte, Berlin, Germany, and thirty-three member firms of LEGALINK collaborated to assemble this information.

Should you have issues pertaining to public procurement, you should contact the lawyer and law firm identified with the response from the particular country. You may also contact Rita Jardim, the Chief Administrative Officer of Legalink (ritajardim@legalink.ch) who will be happy to put you in touch with the appropriate LEGALINK member.
 
Another similar project still available on-line at http://layoffs.questionnaire.legalink.ch/ is “Layoffs: A Legalink Summary Of Laws Around The World”. This project was coordinated by Doug Mishkin, from Patton Boggs, Washington D.C., and forty-four member firms of Legalink collaborated to assemble this information.

The personal working relationships that enabled us to produce these projects also enable us to help our clients find the right lawyer for the right matter in numerous countries.
