Mayer Brown‘s litigation practice has a strong focus on M&A-related litigation, including matters linked to private equity or public M&A deals. The team also represents companies, listed corporations and shareholders in dealing with governance, shareholders’ conflicts and securities litigation. Recently, the team has increasingly been instructed to assist with ESG and environment liability litigation, while the practice’s versatility also extends to managing major financial and industrial product liability cases. Practice head Émilie Vasseur is strongly recommended. Other key names include Nathalie Morel and Michel Ayache.
