A multi-practice Mayer Brown team acted for proFagus Group. The team was led by Banking & Finance partners Dr. Martin Heuber and Bernina Butt and Corporate & Securities partners Dr. Julian Lemor and Dr. Robert John and included, among others: Corporate & Securities — associates Anna-Lena Haggeney and Anne Bagdons; Banking & Finance — counsel Kirsten Schürmann, associate Juliane Thon and transaction lawyer Diego Noriega; Real Estate — counsel Elmar Günther and Tax — counsel Susan Günther (all Frankfurt).
