Our team

Authors and contributors

Taylor Wessing is ranked among the leading M&A advisors in the UK and internationally.

With a rich history of helping companies across all stages of their lifecycle, from set up and early stage funding all the way through to exit and beyond, we have a unique insight into the issues that founders and management teams often encounter when they come to sell their businesses. We leverage that experience and our deep bench strength across M&A, IP and other specialist practice areas to deliver strategic, tactical and technical advice that allows transactions to be executed efficiently and with certainty, whoever the buyer may be.
