Caterpillar relied on a trio of Am Law 100 firms to advise the company on its $7.6 billion acquisition of mining equipment manufacturer Bucyrus International. Bucyrus turned to two of its own top legal advisers for the all-cash transaction, which when including debt, is valued at $8.6 billion.
Mayer Brown M&A partners John Sagan and William Kucera in Chicago took the lead advising Peoria, Ill.-based Caterpillar along with corporate associates Andrew Noreuil, Rachel Spehler, and Joseph Hable.
