Slaughter and May

Slaughter and May acts for institutional investors, infrastructure funds, and corporate platforms on high-value M&A and acquisition financings across the transport, energy, and digital sectors. The team is noted for advising on complex regulatory and structuring issues, including CMA approvals, and is increasingly active in energy transition projects such as hydrogen, CCUS, and nuclear, both in the UK and internationally. Michael Corbett spearheads the practice and focuses primarily on M&A and commercial agreements within the energy infrastructure sector. Co-head Hywel Davies is routinely instructed by funds, multinationals, and energy and services companies on public and private M&A, private equity transactions, and joint ventures. Robin Ogle, another go-to for private equity funds, brings additional expertise in capital raises, while Azadeh Nassiri's wide-ranging infrastructure finance practice includes large-scale energy transactions across Europe and Africa. Oly Moir remains a leading figure in the team and is valued for his deep asset knowledge and cross-border transactional expertise.
