In addition to maintaining close relationships with a roster of established middle-market private equity funds, Dechert LLP represents a growing number of blue-chip clients such as GIC and KKR in connection with bulge-bracket acquisitions, portfolio mergers, and joint investments, particularly in the tech and financial services sectors. The team offers its clients global cross-practice capabilities, working closely across the US and with partners in Europe and Asia to handle the tax, antitrust, and trade aspects of cross-border deals. Mark Thierfelder heads up the team from New York and acts as a key contact for cross-border platform deals and add-on acquisitions. Also in New York, Markus Bolsinger acts as a key contact for leveraged buyouts and take-private deals, while Jonathan Kim frequently works with Thierfelder to advise GIC on its high-value multinational buyouts. Derek Winokur left the team in July 2023, while New York-based Nick Marchica arrived from A&O Shearman in January 2023.
