' MO easily matched that of its global peers. The matter I briefed them on ended up being more complex than originally anticipated and ended up involving multiple teams across the firm, all of whom executed admirably.’
‘Luke Nicholls is a gun on all matters corporate, particularly transactionally and from a governance advice perspective. Luke has a tremendous client manner and when he is in charge of your matter, you know that he is personally across all aspects of it. A very talented individual.’
