With a fluid offering that combines banking and corporate expertise within the same team, Charles Russell Speechlys provides an 'efficient and results-driven' service to corporates, funds, family offices and high-net-worth-individuals across a range of acquisitions, divestments and joint ventures. The 'very pragmatic' Jean-Baptiste Beauvoir-Planson combines capital markets and corporate law sensibilities to good effect and co-heads the team alongside Victor Regnard, whose more finance-focused offering lends itself to a considerable amount of corporate restructuring work and distressed M&A.
