Ashurst Consulting aims to provide holistic solutions that help clients comply with regulatory and legal frameworks in their jurisdictions and operationalize laws and regulations.

"[The new offering] will strengthen our ability to effectively manage clients' most critical business challenges, by bringing together the technical expertise and rigour required to create value by meeting a broader spectrum of their needs,” said Paul Jenkins, Ashurst’s global managing partner .

Aside from Ashurst Consulting, the firm has launched two adjacent services: Board Advisory and Risk Advisory.
