International & Cross-Border Transactions

Chambers Review

Willkie Farr's Paris office is particularly renowned as a key hub in the law firm's wider global transactions practice and holds significant appeal for clients in need of support on cross-border issues in private equity buyouts, corporate restructuring and M&A. The team has a strong track record of assisting both French multinational and international companies on outbound and inbound mandates and is best known for its popularity with private equity funds and asset managers in mid-to-large cap private equity transactions. While close cooperation with the firm's impressive US base holds significant appeal for transatlantic work, the Paris team also regularly operates in a coordinating role in conjunction with the firm's other European offices and receives praise for its well-established position in the French market.

The firm also has strong capabilities in contentious matters. Its highly-skilled practitioners are adept at handling complex and high-profile disputes, as well as large scale international arbitrations, often working in tandem with the firm`s network of offices worldwide.
