Legal 500 Editorial commentary

Testimonials

Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.

  • 'The firm has excellent capabilities in Luxembourg for capital markets, regulatory and fintech matters.'

  • ‘PwC Legal Luxembourg is the one-stop shop for all Luxembourg legal issues. Particularly relevant is their cross-border capabilities, and I have had great experience working with them on orphan Luxembourg SPV 144A/Reg S notes issuances.’

  • ‘They are very responsive and proactive - it would be easy for them to take a more passive role given that their involvement in our cross-border deals is typically limited to Luxembourg issues, but this is not the approach they take, which is greatly appreciated as it keeps the ball rolling forward on all fronts.’

  • ‘Cédric Raffoul is one of the few experts in Luxembourg's capital markets and recently added regulatory and fintech to his skills.’

  • 'The team is extremely responsive and know what they are doing; they are a pleasure to work with.'
