They are excellent from a technical point of view, and they have been making a lot of progress in terms of diversity and inclusion. In general, it has always been a firm that is at the forefront of the market, with a very good mix of teams - experienced lawyers with young, quite modern and fresh lawyers, and it is always a pleasure to work with them.'
