S&C was recognized with two awards at Legal Week’s 2019 Transatlantic Legal Awards: S&C litigation partner Steve Holley was named “Transatlantic Disputes/Regulatory Lawyer of the Year,” and the Firm won “Debt Capital Markets Team of the Year.”
Steve was honored for his work leading the S&C antitrust team advising Bayer in its $66 billion acquisition of Monsanto, while simultaneously also leading the antitrust team advising Praxair in its $80 billion merger of equals with Linde—the two largest transatlantic deals of 2018. The Firm was awarded “Debt Capital Markets Team of the Year” for its work on financing Bayer’s acquisition of Monsanto, and in doing so successfully completing the second biggest bond sale of 2018 globally.
This is the fourth consecutive year in which S&C has been honored at the Transatlantic Legal Awards.
