Banking & Finance

The debt finance and capital markets teams at Kirkland are sharp, user-friendly and organized. I find working with them to be exceptionally easy and we get best-in-class outcomes in every situation.

Kirkland has truly 24 hours a day responsiveness and very short response times too. The firm is highly commercial knowledgeable, and has the ability to see around corners and provide real, valuable counsel during negotiations.

They have strong junior partners and associates, that have been well trained and can operate as extensions of very senior and knowledgeable partners.

Kirkland has bright lawyers with strong expertise across sectors and practices. Given the size of the firm and the experience of their partners, they have seen every type of transaction and can advise clients based on their breadth of expertise.

Commercial awareness is probably their greatest strength. Knowledge of the law is table stakes, but understanding how that applies in practice - the different moves others can or would make, and what options that would present to us - is critically important.
