The 'pragmatic and commercial' team at Luther S.A. collaborates well with international counsel on cross-border M&A transactions, where it is praised for its ability to 'navigate the complexities of Luxembourg corporate and regulatory law without overcomplicating the advice'. 'Solutions-oriented' team head Eric Sublon has a good reputation for handling M&A transactions, restructurings and JV structurings, and continues to regularly provide local law advice to multinational giant Altice, including recently in the context of some major sell-side mandates. The 'clear, calm and focused' Mathieu Laurent handles new money transactions, including for private equity firms, as well as restructuring/insolvency advice, where clients also benefit from his additional dispute resolution expertise.
