Our lawyers advise financial institutions on the structuring and documentation of international financial transactions. We work with commercial banks, finance companies, and hedge funds — offering expertise in syndicated transactions, asset and stock acquisition financing, private equity investments, real estate acquisitions, construction loans, trade finance, and asset-based lending. The practice covers leveraged acquisitions with multiple financing layers, transactions secured by traditional and unusual collateral, and mezzanine loan representation.

Structured real estate and finance is a core competency. We assist with developing, structuring, and implementing complex facilities involving securitizations — representing investment banks, real estate lenders, borrowers, funds, and investors in public and private distributions of structured finance securities. Services include cross-border fundraising guidance, large loan structuring, mezzanine financing, real estate investment funds, secondary-market debt, NPL pool acquisitions, real estate M&A, joint venture structuring, and complex real estate transactions.

On investment funds, we offer broad structuring and regulatory expertise across multiple jurisdictions with international investor bases, advising both investors and fund managers on available global investment fund products. Our insurance practice addresses policy content, pricing, insurer contracting, coverage disputes, life insurance and annuities, bonds, antitrust matters, and commercial litigation. We also assist financially distressed businesses with restructuring and advise both creditors and debtors in bankruptcy, out-of-court restructurings, corporate reorganizations, and distressed M&A.
