Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
'The Taylor Wessing team has a whole range of experienced partners in the area of financing and restructuring with Clemens Niedner, Sabine Schomaker and Ulf Gosejacob. Since they advise both lenders and the borrowers, they know both sides and have a very good understanding of what is (still) acceptable for the other side in the respective situation. This saves unnecessary negotiations and ensures quick and appropriate results.'
