Lawyer Rankings
Israel > Commercial, corporate and M&A
With significant expertise in the technology sector, Meitar Law Offices‘ department continues to secure a leading position in the corporate and M&A sector in Israel. Dan Geva is equally entrusted by Israeli and international corporations, issuers, and investment banks to handle complex acquisitions, restructuring, and corporate finance transactions, an area in which Dan Shamgar, with a focus on cross-border deals, is particularly active. A litany of US and European banks and financial institutions routinely engage Clifford Felig due to his knowledge of corporate and securities law, while Itay Frishman is a go-to choice for international technology companies. Mike Rimon is the venture capital firms’ key contact. The sizeable team also includes ‘number one M&A advisor’ Shira Azran, ‘super negotiator’ Jonathan Atha, and seasoned partner Alon Sahar. Senior associate Mouna Totry is also recommended.
