Services
Acquisition finance
We assist clients with all forms of acquisition finance, covering the going private transactions, takeover bids, leveraged buyouts, stock and asset purchase financings and management buyouts. We have an extensive track record in representing both lenders and borrowers, which gives us an understanding of the expectations and requirements of both sides to a financing transaction.
Due diligence
We are able to provide accurate and insightful due diligence at very competitive rates. The issues that arise during due diligence are often value drivers – we specialise in providing costed and timed solutions to matters we discover.

We regularly advise on regulatory issues during the life of a fund, including financial regulatory and tax matters. We advise on anti-trust and regulatory matters that arise during transactions.
