Often working alongside its corporate team, and in collaboration with the firm’s Paris and Frankfurt offices, Willkie Farr & Gallagher (UK) LLP‘s debt finance practice continues to gain traction among private equity sponsors/portfolio companies, which appreciate the firm’s deep knowledge of financing structures throughout the capital structure, as well as its ability to draw on its strong international resources. In addition to private equity work Ashley Young also handles some lender mandates for credit funds and heads a team that was afforded further bench strength following the arrival of leveraged finance expert Daniel Gendron from Linklaters LLP in August 2022.
