Legal 500 Editorial commentary

Testimonials

Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.

  • ‘The team is comprised of top-quality lawyers. In addition, the unique advantage of the Debevoise team is that Debevoise is still a lock-step firm; this ensures that the best-placed partner to work on a particular matter will be placed in charge of the matter.’

  • ‘In my opinion, what sets Debevoise & Plimpton apart is its unique blend of deep legal expertise, commercial insight, and a collaborative culture that delivers consistently excellent results. The firm’s practice is distinguished by its ability to handle complex, high-stakes matters with precision and creativity, often across multiple jurisdictions.’
