Clifford Chance

Due to the close cooperation between its M&A and corporate practices,  Clifford Chance's advice often materialises within a transactional context and regularly involves corporate restructuring, integrations and spin-offs, with cross-border assistance being a customary aspect. Recently, the firm also continued to provide ongoing support for annual general meetings and various general corporate and stock corporation matters. The client base includes (listed) companies, banks and investors. Christoph Holstein, who regularly advises on cross-border mergers, acquisitions and restructurings, often in the health, life sciences and chemicals sectors, jointly heads the practice with Jörg Rhiel, who frequently advises on mergers, acquisitions and joint ventures in the automotive and technology sectors. Financial services companies are often advised by Thomas Krecek.
