Chambers Europe 2017:
"Bastian Finkel has in-depth knowledge, creative input and commercial approach."
Chambers Europe 2016:
"Clients laud Bastian Finkel for being "very clear and concise," adding: "The advice that he provides is to the point. He doesn't sit on the fence; he comes up with an opinion, backs it up and sticks with it." He is at his most visible in D&O litigation, as well as in drafting insurance policies for clients. Notable work in the last year includes representing an insurer in multiple D&O and E&O cases arising from the insolvency of a large financial institution."
