(Rising stars)Addleshaw Goddard
is ‘quick to respond, focuses on the aims of the client and finds positive solutions to obtain that aim, rather than a robotic, generic legal service‘. The firm is known for its strength in real estate finance, particularly securitisation, but its structured finance expertise extends to ISDA and EMIR issues, bespoke hedging transactions, netting matters, and securitised derivatives. Lead partner Rachel Kelly is ‘considered in her approach and listens to clients requirements not trying to fit into a box‘. Kelly and Carl Posern acted for Virgin Money and other borrowers in the update of loans and derivatives to new post-LIBOR reference rates. Legal directors Paul Denham, who is a buy-side derivatives specialist and is ‘at the top of his game and understands future potential challenges‘, and the ‘very diligent and reliable‘ Carl Baker also play central roles in the practice.
