‘We've worked with the Baker McKenzie M&A team on a number of transactions and appreciate the partner attention and continuity of a smaller team deal after deal. Team is diverse and led by a female partner.’
‘Nancy Hamzo is amazing - really trust her as deal lead and she keeps a strong, dedicated team.'
‘The team are very commercial in their advice, factoring in their knowledge of our business and its values, objectives and challenges - more importantly however, they invest in understanding those aspects through both committing time and resources to build relationships with our internal team, our business and how we do things.’
‘Long-standing commitment to client service over almost 20 years, very responsive, continually demonstrating that we are not simply another client, despite being a small client in their portfolio.’
