Band 3

What the Team is Known For
Allens is noted for its leading full-service practice in Australia with top-tier domestic and international bank clients, as well as global corporates and funds. The firm possesses a market-leading acquisition finance practice with notable strengths in the areas of defence and logistics acquisitions, and is very well regarded for property financing and large syndicated corporate financing. The legal team is prominent in asset finance and leasing, operating across all major asset classes, notably including aircraft and automotive. Allens is also able to leverage its alliance with the global Linklaters network to further assist clients.
Strengths

The team at Allens have deep subject matter expertise, a client-friendly approach, market awareness of precedents and trends, and strong regulatory relationships and understanding.

I feel confident having Allens on complex matters. They thoughtfully contemplate issues and consult internally to ensure that issues are addressed holistically.

Work Highlights

Allens advised Greystar on its AUD1.6 billion acquisition of a purpose-built student accommodation portfolio in Australia.
