Legal 500 Mayer Brown Paris

« Excellent legal team and fantastic service. From the beginning, all the fees and steps were clear to us and we were incredibly knowledgeable throughout the process. « Mayer Brown`s understanding of highly complex financing structures in a highly technical sector is a key differentiator. However, what really sets Mayer Brown`s team apart is its collaborative nature. They are, in a way, the most collaborative legal advisors I`ve worked with and they always focus on working with clients` financial (and other) advisors in order to achieve the best possible outcome for their clients. Mayer Brown puts legal aid for nonprofits around the world at the heart of its strategy. « In addition to the usual legal knowledge of leading U.S. companies, Mayer Brown brings a wealth of local knowledge of Latin American transactions and provides a highly effective interphase between all parties and advisors in transactions. » « Mayer Brown clearly has extensive knowledge and experience in this area. For clients with non-legal training, unlike many other law firms, Mayer Brown`s team communicates legal issues to the client in lay language that the client can understand, and then makes decisions with confidence and the support provided by Mayer Brown. « Fred Fisher and the team have been a great partnership for me and my client relationships. They are extremely knowledgeable, provide excellent work with an extremely fast turnaround time.

Mayer Brown excels at managing a process and moving towards a schedule. When a legal issue comes before me, they have a couple of suggestions on how best to proceed, which significantly reduces the burden process. Whether it`s one-off banking or large syndications, they have the skills to understand the different markets we compete in. I will not make an ESOP-related deal without Mayer Brown as a replacement. « Working with the MB team has been a great pleasure. In addition to the thorough and precise legal advice they provided, if I can highlight one attribute that was particularly appreciated, it was their availability. « I consider Glenn Vanzura and his team to be one of the best in the world when it comes to dealing with complex and sensitive legal issues with high pressure. « Mayer Brown has a very strong base of partners who bring a deep understanding of the industry, the M&A landscape, the regulatory framework and the trends that will shape the industry.

They also have links with experts who can give advice on specific aspects, but all delivered in a transparent manner. « Ruth Zadikany has been a particularly outstanding colleague to our legal team, leading the company to very successful solutions to two important issues. She features prominently on a very short list of our most trusted external consulting teammates. « Mayer Brown has a team with deep knowledge of the infrastructure and energy sectors. Their experience in this field allows them to have a global and pragmatic vision of relevant issues in terms of proactive and dynamic legal and transactional advice. » Graduate recruitment: see www.mayerbrown.com/careers or mayerbrownfutures.com. « It`s always a pleasure to work with Tim Baines. Its availability is extremely good and its advice is very clear and precise – if necessary – so that it can be easily distributed to the company. He is very proactive and ensures that legal issues are simplified for the company when needed.

Very real and friendly even as a person. « The team (James West and Electra Callan for us) always meets the highest standards and offers tight schedules. They have the unique ability to connect with their counterparties to ensure a transparent legal process and enforcement. « Joaquin M. C. Baca; My experience with Joaquin is very positive – he is very responsive, always very approachable and available, knowledgeable, patient and an excellent communicator when it comes to presenting potentially complex topics in easy-to-understand terms. Particularly useful for communicating with the client and making them available for follow-up discussions on legal issues, strategies, etc. « We rate Mayer Brown as a Tier 1 company when it comes to issuing high-yield bonds in Germany; where they have a pretty strong footprint.
