Helen Croke really is an inspiration. I'm going to leave it to one of the client testimonies included in Legal 500 to explain why: "Helen Croke is truly outstanding. The best lawyer that I have worked with in my career. I have worked extensively with her on all of my transactions in Europe for over 10 years, across multiple European jurisdictions. She is extremely intelligent and a brilliant legal mind but also very commercial and user-friendly for financial sponsors. She is truly client-oriented and one of the hardest working lawyers I have ever met." #privateequity #legal500
Proud to see my colleague Helen Croke recognised again as one of the UK’s leading private equity lawyers, having been ranked for the second year running in the Hall of Fame listing of @Legal 500’s private equity transactions rankings. Congratulations and well deserved! #privateequity
