The Firm

Carmon & Carmon provides high quality, cost-effective legal services to a wide range of clients, from small high technology start-up companies to many governmental entities and individuals. In addition to our worldwide legal reach, we focus on Israeli law, and provide one stop services in all matters pertaining to Israel, including litigation and government work.

Most of our practice is international: either the matter handled or the client is foreign. We understand the business culture of Israel and of many foreign countries, and the need of foreign clients to bridge their needs and goals with the reality of Israel and other foreign locations.

Over the past decades, we have expanded our geographic reach to many foreign countries through GLOBALAW, our foreign and international division. With our diversity in geography and practice, the firm has succeeded in maintaining a "One Address" atmosphere, where information and communication transcend all boundaries. Modern era computer technology enables us to link with most members of GLOBALAW around the globe, thereby reducing costs and expediting response time without sacrificing quality, confidentiality or security. The resulting "One Address" culture allows a true cooperation between independently owned law firms around the world, working together toward common goals.

Israeli Law
The advantages offered by our presence in New York, our lawyers’ Israeli roots and admission to practice law in Israel were recognized by the United States Department of Justice when it became our major client for Israeli litigation. We are also retained by the U.S Department of State for non-litigation Israeli matters. We started serving the U.S government in 1985, and continue to provide it with Israeli legal services to this day. We have also been retained by the European Union to appear in Israeli civil litigation on their behalf.
