What the Team is Known For

Baker McKenzie has a solid offering in Europe with branches in Germany, Spain, the UK and France. The law firm frequently acts on transactions, advising pharma companies on acquisitions and joint ventures. The lawyers also assist with IP matters including patent litigation and licensing files, as well as regulatory matters.

Notable practitioners

Montserrat Llopart in Barcelona, Jane Hobson in London and Thilo Räpple, based in Frankfurt, are key points of contact for the firm's life sciences practice.

Work Highlights

Provided by Baker McKenzie

  • Baker McKenzie advised AbbVie on the post-acquisition integration aspects of its takeover of Allergan.

Strengths

Provided by Chambers

"What distinguishes the firm in this space is combining subject matter expertise in both life sciences with legal expertise in M&A and deal-making. The experience of the partners is so vast that it is hard to come up with a set of facts in which they do not have a recommended strategy and structure, all born out of negotiations and an impressive back catalogue of deals."
