‘Very knowledgeble and experienced teams. Trying to think with you, challenging in a constructive way.’
‘The team of partners has a very deep understanding of what we do, of their relevant markets and have been operating in the market for a long time.’

They use their soft skills, as well as hard skills, to sooth borrowers, in case they work for banks. In that sense, they seem to operate above a transaction and can take an impartial view in order to get the documents agreed.’

He has excellent perspectives across legal and commercial matters.'
