English-law qualified Corporate/Private Equity partner joins CMS Cameron McKenna in Kyiv
Newsletters from CMS Cameron McKenna, Kyiv, Ukraine
29 November, 2011
Graham Conlon, an English-qualified Solicitor in the Corporate/International Private Equity team at CMS Cameron McKenna, has recently relocated from London to our Kyiv office. Graham joined CMS in 2010 together with six other private equity/corporate lawyers who handled Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) and emerging market private equity-backed M&A transactions for Linklaters until 2007.
Graham has extensive experience in CEE and the Former Soviet Union. He spent over five years working for Linklaters, most of that as part of their CEE-SEE 'flying squad', advising on several high-profile cross-border transactions, mostly (but not exclusively) for private equity clients.
More recently, he lived and worked for over one year in Kazakhstan, where he became known as one of the leading expat lawyers, advising a range of premium emerging-market-focussed clients on a number of high profile acquisitions and disposals in the region. He has a good working knowledge of Russian, German and Romanian.
Graham was awarded The Mergermarket Young Dealmaker of the Year prize in 2011, and is also studying for his Masters in Finance at the London Business School.
Adam Mycyk, Managing Partner of CMS Cameron McKenna in Kyiv comments: 'Graham is a great addition to our corporate and private equity team and his arrival bolsters our ability to provide English-law advice on the ground here in Ukraine.'
Graham comments: 'Ukraine is an exciting country which offers a lot of potential in the medium and long term, and I am delighted to join what is already a strong and market-leading practice.'
