Baker McKenzie

Drawing considerable praise from clients for its ‘technical excellence’ and ability to ’integrate seamlessly with in-house teams’, Baker McKenzie LLP advises on complex cross-border transactions across Europe, the Americas and the Asia-Pacific region. Bolstered by the firm’s strengths in tax structuring, merger control and post-deal integration, the team regularly acts for major clients in the technology, consumer goods, industrials and healthcare sectors. Co-head Jannan Crozier regularly handles cross-border mergers and acquisitions and negotiated carve-out transactions. Fellow co-head David Scott, praised by one client as ‘one of the best M&A partners I’ve worked with’, remains active across the consumer, healthcare, and tech sectors. The team has been bolstered by the arrival of Michal Berkner, who joined from McDermott Will & Schulte.
