LPA-CGR avocats strengthens its M&A practice with the arrival of Christian Sauer as partner<\/h2>\n

Christian Sauer<\/a> joins LPA-CGR avocats as a partner, strengthening the firm’s M&A practice<\/a>. His arrival confirms the firm’s ambition to increase its cross-border M&A practice, which is at the core of its international development strategy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

With almost 20 years of experience, Christian advises French, European and international clients, including corporates, financial institutions and funds, on complex growth transactions. He assists both sellers and buyers on M&A transactions, private equity, equity investments, financing, restructuring and joint ventures.<\/p>\n

Christian is particularly active in the telecommunications, technology, media<\/a> and life sciences<\/a> sectors, where his expertise is widely recognized.<\/p>\n

He joins LPA-CGR avocats’ Mergers & Acquisitions team in Paris, which now counts around thirty lawyers, including 11 partners. As a Franco-German, Christian works in particular for German and German-speaking economic players for their developments in France and more widely in Europe. He also joins the firm’s German Desk<\/a>, composed of fifteen lawyers with bicultural backgrounds or nationalities, including 6 partners, who work closely with the firm’s 3 offices in Germany (Frankfurt, Hamburg and Munich), and represents a very dynamic development area for the entire firm.<\/p>\n

Christian Sauer comments: \u201cI am delighted to join LPA-CGR avocats, one of the few French law firms with a truly international approach, and particularly a strong Franco-German axis. The sectors in which LPA-CGR avocats has a strong presence represent great opportunities, and I am pleased to pursue my career within a dynamic team with real ambitions in terms of cross-border growth transactions\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n

Julie Cittadini<\/a> and Rapha\u00ebl Chantelot<\/a>, partners and co-heads of the M&A practice, add: \u201cOur ambition to strengthen our M&A practice and to capitalize on the excellence of our German Desk is perfectly reflected in Christian’s arrival. His dual culture and international focus are a valuable asset for our team and our clients\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Biographical details<\/span><\/p>\n
