The Tughans corporate team is a key name for venture capital and private equity transactions. The ‘very efficient and transparent’ practice works with a strong list of technology, engineering, and healthcare clients. Team lead James Donnelly often heads complex transactions, including a recent sale of fourteen Mexican restaurant sites from Boojum to the well-known dining business Azzurri Group. John McGuckian, who is ’wise to market trends and legally adept’, serves as key contact for the department’s private equity clients, while Paul O’Brien is a strong figure in venture capital transactions. Aimee Craig handles M&A, joint venture agreements, and corporate restructurings.

‘Despite Tughans being a large firm, the partners are easily contactable and operate with a family feel and personal touch. We have always found them to be very efficient and transparent and, despite complex legal issues, have kept us fully informed in layman's terms, which is appreciated. Their staff always conduct themselves professionally, are knowledgeable in their area of expertise and have always made us feel at ease with the large scale changes in our business.'
‘We very much enjoyed working with James Donnelly. He got to the point quickly, didn’t waste time and when promising something, he delivered.'
‘John McGuckian and the team are second to none. Advice is always given with sound commercial reasoning, and they are always fully knowledgeable with all involved in any corporate transaction.'
- 'The team are very responsive, amicable, and easy to deal with on both a professional and personal level. A new wave of younger, relevant lawyers is now what you now find at Tughans.'
- 'Our primary dealings are generally with John McGuckian. John is clued in, wise to market trends and legally adept. We find any dealings we have with him to be generally seamless, and we work confident in the knowledge that both the legal and commercial advice on the table is solid.'
- 'Any dealings that we have had with Paul O’Brien throughout his whole career have been nothing but commendable. There are certainly years of experience and knowledge on the shoulders of both these solicitors that is well beyond their years in age.'
- 'They are never afraid to have both the hard and soft conversations with clients and opposing counsels. Their client book speaks for itself.'
- 'Tughans are certainly one of, if not, the go-to teams for corporate law in Northern Ireland. They have been an asset to both us and some shared clients over the course of the last 12 months and before.'
