Baker McKenzie
Client SatisfactionAlthough it handles some purely domestic work - including on day-to-day operational corporate compliance/governance matters for multinational and local companies doing business in Luxembourg - Baker McKenzie is best-known for its skill at handling the necessary Luxembourg structuring pursuant to large-scale cross-border M&A mandates. Here, the team, which is led by the 'outstanding' Jean-François Findling and Elodie Duchêne, can provide a one-stop-shop approach to corporates and funds on the buy and sell-side working in close co-operation with lawyers from throughout the firm's vast global network. Another strength is the team's ability to handle large-scale restructuring mandates.
