Asian Legal Business has named Paul, Weiss as one of Asia's leading private equity firms. The firm is recognized as one of five "Tier 1" foreign firms in China and one of four "Tier 1" firms in Hong Kong as part of ALB's 2013 private equity annual rankings report. ALB highlighted two Paul, Weiss deals: Carlyle Asia Partners III on its $2.6 billion acquisition of Mandarin Hotel Holdings and CITIC Capital Holdings on its investment in China Cinda Asset Management Company. The rankings were based on client feedback; firm visibility and profile in the marketplace; volume complexity and size of work; and general presence across Asia.
In ALB's report, an in-house lawyer describes the firm as being "consistently value-added, thoughtful and commercial in providing legal advice," and a client compliments corporate partner Jack Lange for his "wealth of experience that comes from focusing on M&A work and working repeatedly with some of the most sophisticated PE and other institutions in the market."
