ABZ Law Office is a boutique firm in Jerusalem acting for companies, investors and private clients in Israel and abroad — on corporate and capital markets matters, commercial transactions and contracts, litigation and arbitration, and estates. A great deal of that work spans more than one jurisdiction, and the firm is built for it.
Cross-border matters rarely arrive labeled as a transaction, a dispute, or an estate.
Israel is a significant player in the international business world, and individuals from outside Israel keep deepening their ties here — commercially and in their private lives. A company raising capital in two markets; a foreign investor acquiring an Israeli business; a family holding assets on both sides of an ocean. The legal questions do not respect the border.
We act on both sides of that traffic. The firm advises international clients on their Israeli affairs and Israeli clients on their affairs abroad — structuring and negotiating the transaction, drafting the agreements in Hebrew or English, carrying the dispute if one arises, and coordinating with counsel in the other jurisdiction throughout.
Commercial and civil law, with depth in corporate and capital markets on one hand, and in contentious estate and personal-status matters on the other.
Formation and governance, mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, external in-house counsel and regulatory matters — for Israeli and international companies alike.
II.Tel Aviv and Nasdaq offerings, dual listings, private placements, ATM programs and reporting compliance — together with Rule 144 and other SEC opinion letters.
III.Drafting, negotiation and enforcement of commercial agreements, in Hebrew and in English, under Israeli or foreign law.
IV.Commercial and civil litigation through every phase of discovery, trial and appeal, including disputes with an international element.
V.Representation in arbitration, and service as mediator and arbitrator in commercial and family disputes.
VI.Opinions on American federal and state law — for Israeli courts, and for transactions — and opinions on Israeli law for foreign courts.
VII.Wills, succession, guardianship, enduring powers of attorney, divorce and family matters — most often for families whose assets, members or marriages span more than one country.
VIII.Purchase and sale, registration and property matters, for Israeli and overseas clients alike.
IX.Certification of signatures and of copies, affidavits, powers of attorney and life certificates, and notarial certification of translations between Hebrew and English.
