From my perspective, LAZ in general in SF is a strong group with regards to being a solid relationship group for a series for Bay Area tech / hc companies. But to be honest, they aren't regarded very high in HC in the bay from my fund's POV given their limited cap markets and advisory role in more HC roles whether its an equity follow-on or sell-side. I'd say that it's a bit unfair given the people they hire tend to be high performers so we tend to not discriminate when we see the resume stack come thru from Amity/Ox/Henk but in my own interactions thru deals and even the JPM HC conference, I could tell these guys were not as highly regarded. I have no interest in putting them down or saying anything bad but seeing my senior guys express interest in certain banks over others for meetings, LAZ hc did not make that mix of names
