I'm quite interested in Debt Advisory as a career field and as there are no league tables as there are for M&A, I was wondering which banks/boutiques (not Big4, A&M type firms) have the best teams in terms of dealflow, dealsize, culture etc.?
I am also wondering which firms have dedicated debt advisory teams in London and which firms combine restructuring & debt advisory at junior level and which one I should prefer if I could choose.

rothschild and evercore the best debt advisers on the street (teams of 25+, frequent 1bn+ financings and large m&a debt mandates). followed by lazard, pjt. then pwp, houlihan (very small deals here, sub 100m financings on average).
Sub 100m only at Houlihan or at every firm listed after Lazard? Is there a difference in terms of sponsor/sponsorless deals at those firms?
