Partner, Head of Corporate & Commercial
London
Our client set out to grow its presence in India through a series of acquisitions, requiring expert coordination between UK and Indian legal teams.
As lead counsel, the RPC team worked closely with local counsel to deliver every aspect of our client's Indian M&A activity. We aligned with the client's internal legal and M&A teams, coordinated local advisers, and issued clear, tailored instructions to local counsel based on commercial priorities. We filtered local advice, making it actionable, relevant, and aligned with our client's risk appetite and strategic goals.
We delivered multiple successful acquisitions for our client, navigating complex regulatory and commercial challenges. Our collaborative approach ensured the transactions completed efficiently and on time, with local legal requirements smoothly integrated. With clear, joined-up advice, our client was able to make decisions with confidence and execute each deal with precision - all in support of its wider growth strategy in India.
Our work helped cement our client's position in a key growth market and deepened its relationship with trusted Indian advisers. It also demonstrated RPC’s ability to lead complex cross-border deals and bridge cultural and legal differences.
This collaborative model reflects the trusted and effective way we work with this client and local counsel on international M&A. It builds on an already well-established approach which continues to evolve as we support the client’s cross-border ambitions and global reputation.
"Our close collaboration with local counsel and deep understanding of our client's needs ensured seamless, successful transactions in a dynamic market."
