EMD Advocates is an established Malta law firm forming part of EMD, a Malta-based multi-disciplinary firm that provides clients with legal, tax, advisory, and corporate services under one roof, as a genuine one-stop shop. With a team of experienced lawyers providing traditional legal services alongside specialised legal and advisory services to clients in Malta and overseas, EMD Advocates has built a strong international legal practice.
 
Our lawyers are particularly specialised in a number of niche areas, including company law, commercial law, contract law, employment law, taxation, financial services, immigration and residence, citizenship, fintech, intellectual property, ship and yacht registration, aviation, media and entertainment law, trusts, immovable property, iGaming and construction law.
 
At EMD Advocates, our experienced team of in-house lawyers ensures that clients' needs are met efficiently and cost-effectively. We achieve this by understanding each client's needs and implementing the solutions best suited to their requirements. The firm's partners are supported by a team of associate advocates, paralegal staff, and multi-disciplinary professionals, with particular emphasis placed on transparent, close client relationships. EMD Advocates' organisational structure is built around personalised service: each client deals with a single contact partner, while other lawyers and professionals are brought in on an ad hoc basis according to the nature of the assignment. Our legal team works seamlessly alongside the firm's tax, advisory, and corporate teams, providing clients with a 360-degree service offering that includes local and international tax planning and compliance, accounting and bookkeeping, payroll services, and back-office support.
 
Given their experience and expertise, EMD Advocates is also, at times, engaged by other law firms to provide advice and assistance, both in Malta and overseas. Through our extensive network of foreign correspondent firmsparticularly across Europe, North America, North Africa, and Asia, we can source the additional expertise required for specific transnational engagements in those regions. Our partners and lawyers are duly warranted to practise before the Maltese courts and are members of the Malta Chamber of Advocates, the Institute of Financial Services Practitioners, and the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (STEP), among others. EMD is also home to the Honorary Consulate of Mexico in Malta.
 
EMD Advocates places great emphasis on continuing education. All of our lawyers and support staff regularly attend training programmes and seminars across a range of legal topics. A number of our Malta-based lawyers also lecture at the University of Malta and other educational institutions and organisations in Malta that require the input of qualified Malta lawyers.
