Enquiries from Shell’s Lawyers  We would like to find a precedent for a general security assignment given by a ship owner to a lending syndicate which includes the following terms.. Can you help? I have been asked to provide the Advocate General’s Opinion of case C- 155/14 but can’t find one in English. Can you? We need a copy of this from last week’s Sunday Times. Do you have it? There’s a potential merger between X and Y. I need to find out whether any anti-trust filings have been made yet and where they will need to be filed. Would you be able to provide these pages from an Australian text on the law of agency (3rd ed)?  

Working together – a ‘win win’ partnership “The Norton Rose Fulbright library team are an invaluable back up to the service I provide to Shell’s lawyers. I throw all nature of enquiries at them and they always respond quickly with well researched replies. If it’s not something they can answer they will find someone who can. I could not imagine providing my service without them”. Hilary Smith, Legal Librarian, Shell International
