Our US-based private equity team includes lawyers from our tax, corporate, finance, securities law and antitrust, competition and trade practices. The composition and geographical spread of our international team puts us in a unique position to offer a one-stop-shop for complex multinational private equity transactions.

Our tax lawyers advise on optimizing fund and investment structures for investors as well as post-tax cash flows, implementation, avoiding tax pitfalls, the documentation required to reduce or eliminate tax risk and maximizing our clients' flexibility from fund formation to exit. We have considerable experience across our network in adapting US-originated equity structures to fit EU domestic and corporate legal frameworks, and our international tax team is well accustomed to devising structures that meet the often conflicting constraints imposed by US-based limited partners and European tax laws.

Our finance and banking lawyers have extensive experience advising on the financing aspects of a wide range of private equity-related transactions, acting on behalf of banks, private equity investors, funds and strategic investors. The group advises on public to private transactions, conventional senior and senior/mezzanine structures, structures involving privately placed PIK notes and other non-cash pay instruments, high-yield bonds (placed in Europe and the US), bridge loans, derivatives transactions, securitizations and resolving inter-creditor issues that arise in the context of multi-sourced financings.

Our corporate attorneys have advised both emerging growth companies and institutions on private equity financings of all sizes.
