Sweeney Scharkey LLC

Established in 2017, Sweeney Scharkey LLC was founded on several decades of collective expertise and success in handling bet-the-company litigation, complex transactions, and sensitive controversies. The firm takes a personalised approach to serving a demanding domestic and international clientele in a range of industries whose legal challenges span a broad spectrum of complexity and subject matter. To meet the needs of an increasingly complicated and fast-paced market, the firm prides itself on staying at the forefront of developments that continue to shift the legal landscape, allowing its team to deliver first-rate expertise and an exceptional client experience.

The team at Sweeney Scharkey is responsive, commercially-minded and client-focussed. The firm's mission is to anticipate their clients’ objectives and go above and beyond what is necessary to exceed their client's goals—no matter how ambitious—whenever they arise. As trusted advisors, the firm routinely delivers fresh thinking, critical analysis, and dynamic solutions for its clients’ most challenging mandates. Whether litigating a controversy or structuring a transaction, the firm takes a holistic approach to addressing its clients’ legal needs. That process starts with taking the time to get to know their clients; learning about their businesses, industries, and competition; and understanding their specific objectives. Once the client's objectives have been defined, the team devises a comprehensive strategy to achieve a successful outcome.

The firm's high performance culture is founded on an unyielding commitment to quality and excellence in every mandate. While providing this high level of service means the firm cannot accept every client or matter, those clients the firm does accept benefit from a unified team with a blend of intellect, energy and pragmatism—including the direct, personal attention of the partners—each of whom is dedicated to achieving superior results for every client in every engagement.
