What the Team is Known For
Strengths
They are very diligent, very thoughtful, hardworking, practical, timely, and good communicators providing good advice for their clients.
They've been spectacular; absolutely top notch service. They have an ability to peek round corners and make sure there's no surprises. Everything is very well thought through, attentive and accurate.
Sullivan & Cromwell provides excellent top-level partner leadership to be sure, but also excellent junior partner and associate support. The team are highly responsive, quick, and effective.

She is so client-focused, smart, and able to not miss a beat. Zena is so responsive to clients' questions.
Bachir works very well with clients and provides very good advice.
Bachir is exceptionally bright and has excellent client relationship skills. He has a strong work ethic and is someone I trust blindly. He never lets you down and you know you're in safe hands.
Charles is an excellent leader of the team, delivering great service personally and as the leader.
I like that Charles brings a very complicated issue into the English language, helping everyone understand what they are planning and what they are doing. He's very smart and I like how he operates.
