What the Team is Known For
Kirkland & Ellis is frequently recognised as a global powerhouse supporting multinational clients in a wide range of practice areas. Its rapid expansion has seen it increase in prominence in European and Asian jurisdictions, including China, Germany and the UK. The firm continues to handle some of the most complex and sophisticated cross-border transactions and contentious proceedings, and has been particularly successful in building a strong global brand around the law firm's impressive work in the private equity sector.
Fund formation and private equity buyouts represent key aspects of the firm's international expertise in London, and its lawyers often manage funds-related business between the USA, Europe and Asia. The team has significant experience advising fund managers investing in a broad range of asset classes, enabling it to advise on sophisticated mandates with multifaceted and multi-jurisdictional elements.
