Lawyer Rankings

Luxembourg > Commercial, corporate and M&A

Acting on its own, as well as often working alongside the firm’s accomplished tax team, Strelia provides a ‘flexible and adaptable’ service to clients across a wide array of general corporate advice, corporate reorganisation mandates and M&A transactions. A good deal of the workflow is of a cross-border nature, including for French clients, which the firm is well-placed to advise by virtue of having several dual Luxembourg and French qualified practitioners in the team. Etienne de Crépy is one such practitioner and is noted for his ‘concise and commercial’ advice, including on JV structuring. Vanessa Schmitt is recognised as ‘an absolutely stellar corporate lawyer,’ and along with Michaël Meylan, has enhanced the team’s offering following their arrival from Stibbe in June 2022.
