  • 'Unmatched sectoral and regional knowledge and experience made White & Case a natural choice for the first ever renewable energy projects in Azerbaijan. The lawyers who worked and continue working on Azerbaijani renewable energy mandates have deep knowledge of the market, understand the interests and strategic priorities of the client, are excellent negotiators - overall they compare very favourably to other firms that acted in Azerbaijani renewable projects.'
  • 'Mukund Dhar knows everything there is to know about renewable projects. The client is instinctively relying on him either when making policy decisions which have a lasting effect on the fledgling renewables market in Azerbaijan or when it is locked in tense negotiations with sponsors or/ and project lenders. It is no wonder that he is winning more energy mandates in Azerbaijan, both in renewable energy sector and beyond.'
  • 'Alex Field is very hardworking and diligent.'
