Helen Croke really is an inspiration. I'm going to leave it to one of the client testimonies included in Legal 500 to explain why: "Helen Croke is truly outstanding. The best lawyer that I have worked with in my career. I have worked extensively with her on all of my transactions in Europe for over 10 years, across multiple European jurisdictions. She is extremely intelligent and a brilliant legal mind but also very commercial and user-friendly for financial sponsors. She is truly client-oriented and one of the hardest working lawyers I have ever met." #privateequity #legal500
