Paul Weiss and Fasken named top M&A legal advisers in metals & mining sector for Q1-Q3 2022, finds GlobalData
Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison (Paul Weiss) and Fasken Martineau DuMoulin (Fasken) were the top mergers and acquisitions (M&A) legal advisers in the metals & mining sector for the Q1-Q3 period of 2022 by deal value and deal volume, respectively, according to the latest Legal Advisers League Table by GlobalData.
Based on its Financial Deals Database, the leading data and analytics company has revealed that Paul Weiss achieved its leading position by deal value by advising on $9.8 billion worth of deals. Meanwhile, Fasken led by deal volume by advising on a total of 15 deals.
Aurojyoti Bose, Lead Analyst at GlobalData, comments: “As well as coming top of the chart when it comes to total deals advised, Fasken also performed well on the deal value ranking. Of its total 15 deals, six were valued more than $100 million, one of which was valued more than $5 billion. As a result, Fasken managed to occupy second position by value. However, it still had some way to go in comparison with Paul Weiss, which had a total deal value just shy of the $10 billion mark.”
