Adrien Paturaud works as an Associate in our Banking practice in Paris. He joined in September 2004. He has been particularly impressed by the responsibility he has been given.

“Right from the first day, you are given the freedom to prove yourself and no one is given preference when allocating the best work. I have had the opportunity – from early on – to close deals by myself, and I’ve always had both the backing and support of the partners.

“What’s more, I will often find myself dealing with up to four or five different projects at the same time. It can be difficult, of course. But the chance to work on complex, cross-border deals, to build up my grasp of English, and – best of all – to fulfil my potential is exceptionally rewarding.”
