Ropes & Gray

Ropes & Gray is celebrating the 25th anniversary of its New York office all year long. Finance partner Michael McGuigan works on transactions that are “critical” to clients on the borrower side whose “biggest issue” is “certainty of execution.” That means “not only having the right finance lawyers to do the deal,” he says, “but having…all the different disciplines that come to bear on a fund structure…ready in a very broad and deep bench.” With its “breadth of practice” and “talent base,” Ropes & Gray has the ability to meet those clients’ needs “in an all-encompassing” manner.
