Internationale Rankings in Gesellschaftsrecht/M&A

"This firm has one of the strongest domestic corporate and M&A practices, according to sources, and has also played a key role in several recent cross-border transactions. Clients note the team's useful connections with lawyers in jurisdictions outside Austria. The team advised conwert Immobilien Invest on the bidding process and EUR181 million takeover of ECO Business-Immobilien.
Sources say: 'I am impressed – it's a professional, dedicated and experienced team. A pleasure to work with.' Clients value Martin Brodey's understanding of doing business abroad and his talent for getting the deal through: 'He stepped in right in the middle of the process and helped things roll along. Thanks to him, we managed to close on time,' reported one source. Axel Anderl is well known for his IT and IP practices, and is also recognised for his franchising expertise. Andreas Mayr is an acclaimed capital markets lawyer and a go-to contact for public takeovers. His recent work has included acting for KNAPP on a business alliance agreement with Daifuku.
'Well connected, thorough and well prepared,' Christian Dorda is admired for his long experience in corporate transactions and is in great demand as an arbitrator. Jürgen Kittel is making a name for himself as an M&A lawyer, and is also recommended for private equity transactions." (Chambers Europe , 2012-Ausgabe)

"Clients pick up on Dorda Brugger Jordis' full service approach: 'They have a comprehensive understanding of our needs for legal, tax and finance issues.' Another was impressed with the M&A team's commitment: 'We had special needs to do with the board of directors and other complex issues and they handled these well.' Though some competitors say founder and name partner Christian Dorda was less present on transactions recently, clients remain impressed with his work: 'He is very responsive, very in to the topics, very up to speed and reliable,' says one, 'he's is probably the most corporate minded lawyer I've met. It's probably the result of 35 or 40 year career in advising companies on M&A.' It might be assumed that the firm's cross-border capabilities would be slightly hamstrung by the lack of a cohesive CEE (Central & Eastern Europe) network but clients suggested that the firm's network of alliances is equally as effective. Partner Martin Brodey is seen as one of the leading figures in the corporate team but Andreas Mayr is highlighted for his expertise in public M&A." (ILFR 1000, 2012-Ausgabe)

"Dorda Brugger Jordis recently advised Banque Populaire Caisse d’Epargne on divesting its shares in Volksbank in the CEE region, and new client Astra Tech on the local aspects of selling its dental division to Dentsply. The team features the ‘pragmatic and practical’ Martin Brodey, the ‘client-friendly’ Andreas Mayr, and the well-respected Christian Dorda and Jürgen Kittel." (Legal 500, 2012-Ausgabe)
