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 aggressive 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.

The advantages offered by our unique litigation experience were recognized by the United States Department of Justice when it became our major client for Israeli litigation. We were also retained by the U.S Department of State for non-litigation Israeli matters for the U.S embassy in Tel Aviv and the U.S Consulate General in Jerusalem. We started serving the U.S government in 1985, and continued through 2016 to provide it with Israeli legal services. We have also been retained by the European Union to appear in Israeli civil litigation on their behalf, and represented the United Nations Multinational Force & Observers in Sinai and the America School in Kfar Shmaryahu. Additionally we provided legal services to foreign multinational corporations and individuals on multi-national legal matters.
