Paul Hastings Advised on a “Deal of the Decade” by Private Debt Investor
We develop innovative strategies to achieve the business goals of clients ranging from the largest and most sophisticated global banks to opportunistic and special situations funds, and from specialty finance firms and private credit funds to business development companies and alternative investment managers – all across a wide range of industries.
From billion-dollar-plus financings to middle-market loans, we use our deep market knowledge and understanding of each client’s business to take advantage of opportunities in developing efficient financing options. Our broad experience ranges across all forms of capital, including syndicated bank loans, high-yield bonds, unitranche and other direct-lending financings, asset-based loans, mezzanine debt and preferred stock.
Clients benefit from our multidisciplinary team, which is fully integrated with the firm’s capital markets, M&A, regulatory, tax, environmental, restructuring and bankruptcy, and other practices to offer seamless execution in all transactions. We also are uniquely able to leverage our impressive global footprint with strong coordination between our firm’s offices across the U.S., Europe, Latin America and Asia when handling multi-jurisdictional matters.
