Clifford Chance

Led on a day-to-day basis by Sébastien Schmitz and well-integrated across the firm's banking, corporate, funds and tax practice areas, Clifford Chance handles a range of work for developers, investors and public bodies, where it combines local experience with best international practice. Schmitz has recently handled a number of real estate projects in the energy space and is often assisted by 'exceptional' senior associate Alma Custovic , who has 'a proven track record of success in the real estate area'. Litigator Albert Moro co-heads the overarching team alongside Schmitz that is also well-versed at handling cross-border deals, often working closely with its Brussels office, in particular.
