Leadership of the team is shared between Chris Newton, an expert in M&A for US public companies; and Ruairi Bourke, whose M&A experience includes assistance to both private and public companies. Amel Wehden is a regular fixture of the firm’s teams of counsel on major transactions, and Chloe Harris advises on a broad range of corporate and banking and finance transactions.
