Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP

Skadden’s London office opened in 1988 and is our largest European office. As one of the biggest financial centres in the world, London is home to a number of Skadden’s major clients. Our attorneys advise on mergers and acquisitions, private equity, capital markets, tax, banking, corporate restructuring, energy transactions, and international litigation and arbitration, as well as EU law and international competition issues. We offer both English and U.S. law advice in all major disciplines.

Skadden is one of the most successful American law firms to have established a combined U.S. and European capability in Europe, developing local practices across the key European jurisdictions. Skadden’s European practice extends to seven offices in all major financial centres, operating as an integrated practice group without office or jurisdictional boundaries. This approach is a critical part of our competitive advantage in Europe. In recognition of our commitment to clients, Skadden was voted “Client Service Firm of the Year” by Chambers Global 2007, the last time the award — one of Chambers’ top honours — was given.

Our arbitration, banking, capital markets, corporate/M&A, energy and projects and tax practices are recognised among the leading practices in the world by Chambers Global 2010. Chambers UK 2009 says, "the firm's commitment to client service is reflected in the highly developed relationships with demanding organisations." In 2010 and 2009, Skadden was awarded "Best Recruiter – US Firm in the City" at the LawCareers.Net Training and Recruitment Awards and was recognised as "Law Firm of the Year" in the Mergers & Acquisitions magazine. Skadden also won "Best Trainer — U.S. Firm in the City" at the LawCareers.Net Training and Recruitment Awards in 2007 and 2008.
