Inside the Corporate Finance market.
Our proprietary Titan Crawler AI maps the relevant field first; experienced consultants qualify it by hand. The figures describe the talent market we cover.
- 7,500+
- lawyers with corporate finance experience
Corporate finance is where legal complexity meets commercial consequence — from leveraged buyouts and acquisition financings to structured products, debt capital markets and cross-border syndicated facilities. The lawyers who do this work operate at the intersection of deal execution, regulatory constraint and creditor negotiation, and the best of them are rarely visible on the open market.
Sartori & Partners has mapped more than 7,500 lawyers with corporate finance experience across the major deal-making markets. That depth means we can identify, assess and approach the precise talent a mandate demands — not a shortlist built from whoever happened to respond to an advertisement.
We work with companies that operate in private equity, investment banking, asset management and infrastructure, as well as with the practices that serve them. Whether the need is a senior hire to anchor a leverage finance capability or a mid-level associate with structured credit exposure, our intelligence on this market is built to move at deal speed.

How do you source corporate finance lawyers who are not actively looking?
The majority of strong candidates in this specialism are fully occupied on live transactions and do not monitor job boards. Our coverage of 7,500+ lawyers with corporate finance experience means we approach the right people directly and confidentially, based on tracked deal exposure and practice fit rather than inbound applications.
What distinguishes a corporate finance mandate from a general finance search?
Corporate finance lawyers specialise in the transactional mechanics of M&A, leveraged finance, debt structuring and capital markets — a distinct skill set from, say, regulatory or funds work. We assess candidates on deal type, instrument familiarity and counterparty sophistication, not just years of call, which produces a materially tighter shortlist.
Can you recruit corporate finance lawyers across multiple markets simultaneously?
Yes. Our market mapping spans the major deal-making centres, allowing us to run parallel searches or build out a practice across jurisdictions from a single engagement. We recruit across markets rather than limiting scope to any single geography.
