"With a strong background in transactional work, this well-regarded firm offers excellent finance and projects expertise. Its presence in the wind sector remains robust, and the lawyers are developing a sharp focus on energy trading and the changes to the Single Electricity Market, the first step in the all-island energy project to be fully implemented and operational on 1 November 2007. Illustrating its M&A capability, the team also acted as Northern Ireland counsel to major new client Arcapita in its successful £1.62 billion acquisition of Viridian Group."
