Law360 Names Cravath a 2020 “Benefits Practice Group of the Year”

December 07, 2020

On December 4, 2020, Cravath was featured by Law360 as a “Benefits Practice Group of the Year” for its work advising clients on “the benefits and compensation aspects of multibillion-dollar corporate transactions.” The profile highlighted the Firm’s representation of Peugeot SA in its $50 billion merger with Fiat Chrysler, Just Eat Takeaway.com in its $7.3 billion acquisition of Grubhub and Lindsay Goldberg and American Securities in their $2.4 billion acquisition of AECOM's management services business. Partners Eric W. Hilfers and Jonathan J. Katz discussed the Firm’s continued commitment to training lawyers with “good commercial judgement” and finding ways to maintain the practice group’s “strong internal culture of collaboration” despite the physical distance necessitated by COVID-19, while helping clients “chart a successful course” through large and complex cross-border transactions.
