Deal Generation

As rare as it is amongst solicitors, EMW Picton Howell can lay genuine claim to the name “dealmaker”. The firm established its early reputation in, and has subsequently spent 15 years focussing on, buy-out activity. This has left it with a sizeable and maturing base of private equity backed clients from which to source its own deals and establish reciprocal referral relationships.

With a growing number of secondary buy-outs and exits emerging from its own client base, emw’s referral opportunities have proved to be greatly disproportionate to its size and have carried more weight than those of its larger and older competitors.
