Leveraged Finance

From our offices across the U.S., Europe, Middle East and Asia Pacific, we advise lenders, borrowers, sponsors, and investors on complex leveraged finance transactions across global markets. Our integrated team of bank finance and private credit/direct lending lawyers combines deep industry insight and experience across the capital structure to execute high‑value financings, from single‑lender and bilateral deals to broadly syndicated, multi‑tranche, and multicurrency transactions. 

We represent traditional and non‑traditional lenders, private credit and debt funds, arrangers, investors, borrowers, issuers, underwriters, and sponsors across the full range of leveraged finance transactions. Our team combines borrower‑side and lender‑side experience to provide ambidextrous representation and market‑informed advice.

With lawyers based in major financial centers such as New York, Chicago, London, Paris, and Singapore, we offer a commercial understanding of both domestic and international financing markets. Our depth of experience allows us to support clients across diverse transaction dynamics, including:

  • Early‑stage venture capital and private‑equity‑backed financings
  • Large‑scale syndicated and structured financings
  • Private credit and direct lending transactions
  • Distressed and complex capital structure situations

We focus on clients’ most complex challenges, leveraging our industry knowledge not only to execute financings but also to help develop new financial products for the market. Our collaborative, integrated approach enables us to deliver efficient, commercially focused advice across borders and market cycles.
