The ‘exceptional and highly competent’ team at Proskauer Rose LLP was significantly bolstered in October 2023 by a group of lawyers that arrived from Shearman & Sterling LLP that included Xavier Norlain, Jeremy Scemama, Matthieu Lampel, and Maud Manon. The practice is jointly directed by Norlain, who advises investment funds on LBO, venture capital and development capital transactions; and Scemama, who is well-versed in advising listed and non-listed companies on their corporate finance, restructuring and external growth operations.
