JUVE HANDBOOK 2007, Region Hamburg:
This highly recommended firm in Hamburg demonstrated its presence in the market in a number of prominent transactions over the past year, including advice to Apollo on the merger with Telecolumbus, one of the largest deals in the firm’s history. LLSW is increasingly providing ongoing advice to the targets (frequently including restructuring) following completion of transactions on behalf of international buyers, which means constant business for the practice.
Recommended lawyers: Axel Löhde, Hubertus Leo, Dr. Hartwig Schmidt-Hollburg, Dr. Andreas Witte

JUVE HANDBOOK 2007, Corporate:
Respected firm for corporate law which is really part of the Hamburg establishment. Over the last few years, a whole string of spinoff boutiques have opened up; the sheer number of competitors means that it is often forgotten that LLSW was the first of such entities. The practice is well positioned in the technology sector and in the northern German economy.
JUVE HANDBOOK 2007, M&A:
Respected firm for M&A. This relatively young Hamburg boutique remains true to itself: a partner-centered, top-quality corporate team with a high proportion of cross-border work. Deals such as Sulo/Cleanaway show that the firm operates in a higher league than one might expect.
Practice strengths: Strong international contacts (UK, US, Scandinavia); extensive experience in the technology and telecoms sector (especially Leo).
