Acquisition and Leveraged Finance

We regularly handle finance for public takeovers, private acquisitions and asset purchases. This work is frequently complex, highly structured and leveraged, involving sophisticated inter-creditor and security sharing arrangements. This often requires our financing lawyers to work closely with our mergers and acquisitions lawyers and experts in other fields such as taxation, pensions and employment, competition, intellectual property and commercial real estate.

We represent a wide variety of clients in this area: industry buyers, venture capital and private equity funds, other types of equity investors, arrangers and providers of loan finance at the senior, mezzanine and subordinated levels and lead managers of high yield bonds.
