Every quarter since 2000, Jones Day has done more M&A deals than any other law firm in the world.
We take a fundamentally different approach, enabled by the Firm's overarching "One Firm" culture. We base our approach on the recognition that the law firm value proposition in M&A has moved from a fixation on deal papers and the conduct of ritualistic due diligence to true risk assessment, value-creation through transactional structuring, new governance processes, and the ability to marshal numerous practice disciplines on a seamless and cost-effective basis, frequently in multijurisdictional, even global, transactional settings.
Accordingly, interdisciplinary teaming is the defining concept for us in M&A, by which we bring our extensive experience and scalable resources to bear on a real-time, cost-effective basis.
