Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘Ashurst has an excellent debt capital markets team, headed by Anna Delgado. Unlike other firms, Ashurst is gaining market share in programme issuance and repackaging work.’
‘Anna Delgado is a market leader with excellent technical knowledge - she remains hands-on and has excellent client skills. ’
‘The partners and the team are experts in their area. They always provide clear and solid advice. They have guided us on various complex matters such as LIBOR transition, helped set up new platform for product issuance. They also have good insight on industry practice.’
‘Anna Delgado is exceptional. She is thorough in her analysis, and considers the matter from all perspectives. She has a good understanding of how our business work and the industry practice, and provides good practical solutions. She is quick in responding to our queries, and provides good immediate thoughts and views we need before taking the matter further.’
‘Alex Biles and his team have really taken the time to understand the requirements of our business and build a strong relationship with us over a number of years. They are extremely responsive. They are always able to deliver calm and helpful legal advice, no matter how urgent or difficult the request. Furthermore they are very professional and personable which makes them a great team to deal with.’
‘The team is one to watch - quietly and consistently earning a place among the bigger names in the space.’
‘Both Ciaran Vinaccia and Malcolm Charles offer well-considered and technically strong advice. Both are experienced, easy to deal with and are responsive, whilst being able to quote and invoice in a commercial manner when needed.’
‘Ashurst worked as a team. We had a truly engaged partner and the associate was one of the best I had worked with. They both knew what they were doing and were on top of the issues together. Not once did the associate say I need to check with the partner or vice versa. Truly impressive coordination inside Ashurst. Also dealing with the US and time zone differences, both the partner and associate were 100% available to us.’
