‘We were working mostly with two partners who were our day-to-day contacts on the transaction, along with one or two associates. The deep involvement and sound advice of the partners clearly stood out and brought a lot of value. ’
‘We worked with Siobhan Carlin and Colm Ó hUiginn on our transaction. We valued the quality of their advice, their proactiveness and their strong stance on specific issues - they clearly pointed out when an issue was serious (and defended the position accordingly) or when something was of secondary importance. This allowed for a smooth and efficient process with the client.’
