MxP Partners, an investment firm and a founding shareholder of the business, acquired the North West-based operator of 95 community pubs, from Legal & General Capital in a buyout jointly backed by BlueBay Asset Management.

They were joined by  associates Laura Charles (funds), Nicholas Crabtree (corporate) and solicitors James Bradshaw (corporate), Anup Mehta (corporate), Saffron Smith (corporate) and Amy Tabari (real estate).

Mr Piggin said: “This type of private equity transaction is still quite rare, even in today’s market, so it was a particularly exciting deal for us to be able to advise on.

“Being able to draw on the significant knowledge and experience of such a tight-knit team of experts, from across a range of specialisms, was invaluable to securing the best result for our client, especially when it came to the deal specific funding and structuring the investment arrangements between MxP Partners and BlueBay Asset Management.
