‘Excellent teams across a number of practice areas including M&A, regulatory advisory, capital markets and financial services.’

‘The team is very experienced, and therefore provide clear advice which is well-structured and thought through. This makes it very easy to digest and follow. They are also willing to take a position on new matters, when other firms are not so willing to provide clearcut advice - which is very helpful when discussing with committees internally. This commercial approach is very much appreciated.'
