Latham & Watkins LLP

Mehr Information
Latham & Watkins LLP's strength lies in cross-border matters and particularly transatlantic transactions, which is not least due to its close cross-location cooperation with offices in Europe and the US. The practice operates in both the large and mid-cap sectors and advises large German and international companies, including various listed companies, as well as investors, who often stem from the technology, healthcare, life sciences, energy and infrastructure sectors. The group is headed by Heiko Gotsche, who regularly advises listed and family-owned companies on joint ventures, reorganisations and carve-outs. Other key contacts include Rainer Traugott, who frequently assists PE houses and infrastructure investors, and Alexander Stefan Rieger, who focuses on energy and infrastructure and has been heading the continental European corporate practice since September 2024. M&A and PE expert Tobias Larisch (sector focus on energy and infrastructure) joined Kirkland & Ellis International LLP in September 2024.
