Clifford Chance

I joined Clifford Chance for many reasons: the international environment, the financial package offered, the prestige of an office in the City - and the fact that the views from the meeting rooms were simply spectacular!

Of all of these, the deciding factor for me was that, in the various interviews that I had at Clifford Chance, I became convinced that it was a truly meritocratic firm without hierarchies that was willing to give its lawyers a considerable degree of freedom in which to use their particular skills.

I wasn't wrong. Over the years, Clifford Chance has offered me countless opportunities: to advise some of the largest Spanish and international banks on major, high-profile finance and capital markets deals; to work at one of our main banking clients for six months; to regularly meet many of my practice area colleagues from the firm's other offices around the globe; and, in particular, to work with an excellent team of professionals, with the best resources imaginable in a comfortable and unpretentious environment.

What more could one ask for?
