Paris—A member of the Paris Bar, Meryll Aloro joined Dentons in 2016 as a trainee and has built her entire career within the Banking and Finance team, working alongside Philippe Max, a partner since 2005 and a leading figure in structured finance. Benefiting from a culture of rigorous mentorship and technical excellence, she has developed a strong track record across complex financing transactions.

“Meryll has established herself as a highly skilled lawyer, consistently dedicated to our clients. Her promotion to partner marks the culmination of an outstanding career path and is a source of pride for our team,” said Philippe Max, Partner, Banking and Finance.

A recognized banking and finance lawyer, she advises both French and international financial institutions, with a particular focus on fund finance transactions, including equity bridge and NAV financings. Clients value her technical precision, pragmatic approach and responsiveness.

“I am honored to join the Dentons partnership, a firm that has supported me at every stage of my professional development. I am grateful to my mentors and colleagues, and I look forward to continuing to develop the Banking and Finance practice alongside the entire team,” said Meryll Aloro.

This promotion reinforces Dentons’ growth momentum, driven in particular by recognizing talent developed within the firm. It follows the appointments announced in April of Nadhia Ameziane as Partner in Family Office and Fabrice Korenbeusser as Partner in Tax, as well as the promotion to Counsel of four lawyers: Daphné Roger-Vasselin (Litigation and Dispute Resolution – Insurance), Philippine de Fouchier (Banking and Finance), Pierre-Marie Gallo (Corporate) and Tom Blanchet (Intellectual Property and Technology). Together, these advancements underscore the firm’s commitment to fostering the next generation of leading lawyers.

“Internal promotion is a core value at Dentons. We are proud to recognize the outstanding contributions of our lawyers and to invest in their continued growth. Our clients value the continuity and excellence provided by teams who have built trusted relationships over many years,” said Pascal Schmitz, France Managing Partner at Dentons.
