- a wide range of participants in distressed M&A matters, most particularly market-leading work on NPL portfolios for both selling financial institutions and private equity purchasers
- leading Irish corporates and their boards on complex corporate governance and strategic shareholder issues, particularly takeover defence and activist shareholder issues
