Lawyer Rankings
Luxembourg > Commercial, corporate and M&A
(Leading partners)Now under the leadership of the ‘creative and commercial’ Rémy Bonneau following the retirement in May 2024 of Nicolas Gauzes, Linklaters‘ ‘responsive and client-oriented’ team acts on domestic mandates, as well as forming a vital part of the firm’s global offering where it is appreciated for its ‘deep expertise and ability to handle complex, cross-border transactions’. A good deal of this multi-jurisdictional work relates to Luxembourg structuring on behalf of private equity firms, both on the buy and sell-side. Much of this is led by Bonneau, who ‘is able to navigate through complicated and unusual structures’ and is well-versed at advising on matters throughout the investment life-cycle. Manfred Müller is also recommended, recently providing the Luxembourg structuring advice pursuant to Carrier Global Corporation’s $4.95bn sale of its security business, Global Access Solutions.
