Drawing on the strength of its global network of offices, Mayer Brown International LLP is engaged by a host of mid-market sponsors for its transactional capabilities. James West's extensive focus includes sponsor-and management side deals, and buy-and-build mandates. Tarun Patel has a strong European practice, and has recently been active on tech, software, telecoms and media and entertainment deals, while the ‘fantastic’ Electra Callan is regarded as ’smart, rigorous and pragmatic’. Callan generates significant work for the firm, attracting a range of instructions from a growing roster of clients. Former practice head Perry Yam left the firm in March 2024.
