Sarb is an excellent all-round lawyer with very strong commercial and technical skills, and great situational awareness. He's one of the top lawyers in London in large cap leveraged finance.

I know he will help in a very commercial manner, that he will tell us what the key risks are, but also what the typical market standards are. It really helps us go into a deal with our eyes wide open.

Sarb is always on top of what's happening in the market, and he's excellent at coming up with solutions to things.
