Also based in New York, Elizabeth Devine regularly represents issuers and underwriters in asset‑backed financings, receivables and securitization facilities, as well as consumer‑loan mandates. In Boston, Caitlin Colesanti is active across financings, rental‑car ABS transactions and whole‑business securitizations.
