• ‘Breadth and depth of experience and talent differentiate the K&E team. We had a complicated international matter and they tracked down evidence and resources most firms would not be able to obtain.’

• ‘I’ve seen firsthand how their corporate team operates with unmatched precision and creativity, handling complex transactions in a way that not only protects but elevates your business. On the litigation side, they’re absolute warriors—strategic, relentless, and always a step ahead. And when it comes to pre-IPO work, their attention to detail and ability to anticipate challenges is nothing short of extraordinary. They make what could be an overwhelming process feel seamless and under control. '

He has been very helpful and constantly provides relevant legal updates and also commercial news of other players in the trade industry. Would highly recommend his services.'
