What does it take to run the legal team in one of the most profitable deal shops in the world? After months of discussions with private equity and leveraged finance partners at the leading law firms in London as well as a host of in-house lawyers, Legal Business has come up with the definitive list of the top London-based private equity GCs, with 24 making the grade.
Legal 500 was delighted to return to Toronto for the launch of the GC Powerlist: Canada 2025, in association with DLA Piper. The event gathered many of Canada’s leading in-house legal professionals for an evening of discussion and networking.
The evening opened with remarks from Russel Drew, Partner at DLA Piper, who offered perspectives on the evolving role of general counsel in the country.
The event concluded with a reception, where guests enjoyed the chance to connect with peers in a relaxed and convivial setting.
We extend our thanks to all our speakers for their valuable contributions, and to DLA Piper for supporting the recognition of Canada’s outstanding general counsel community.
