Arc Pensions Law remains a distinctive pensions boutique in Leeds, with a practice that is particularly visible on large transactions, technically difficult benefit issues, and funding solutions requiring close negotiation with sponsors and trustees. The firm is also notable for the way it is used alongside elite corporate firms on major deal work, especially where pension risk sits close to value and structure. Vikki Massarano is especially associated with the pensions aspects of corporate activity and restructuring, while Kate Payne brings further strength on complex scheme projects and cross-border matters. Robert Walker adds depth on buy-in and buyout work, with Claire Goodby and Clare Pollard supporting the team on trustee and risk transfer mandates.
Legal 500 Editorial commentary
Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
- Competent, commercial, and efficient.
- I think the people are great lawyers, but real people who are open and approachable, as well as friendly and considerate. I feel valued; I feel like I matter and that nothing is just generic; it is all relative. There is always great professionalism and very well thought out legal advice, but it is delivered in much more than black and white, with a very obvious desire to make sure it is understood.
