Banking & Finance

Goldberg Kohn's 40-attorney Commercial Finance Practice is dedicated to representing banks and other commercial lenders in loan transactions involving borrowers in a broad spectrum of industries. We represent lenders in billions of dollars of loan transactions annually, have the trust of the largest institutional lenders, and are lender counsel-of-choice of many equity sponsors. Our attorneys represent banks, commercial finance companies, direct lenders, private credit investors and other institutional lenders in asset-based and cash-flow loans, unitranche structures, leveraged buyouts and mezzanine financings. We are engaged in acquisition financings, recapitalization financings and other complex financial arrangements requiring institutional debt, often representing the lead agent in syndicated and club facilities. Additionally, our lawyers have extensive experience in bilateral and syndicated credit facilities, often representing agent banks, as well as split-lien and multi-lien structures. Having foreseen the globalization of middle-market lending in the mid-1980s, Goldberg Kohn has one of the strongest cross-border lending practices in the U.S and handles complex international lending transactions in Europe, Asia, South America and Central America. Finally, our attorneys are experienced in bankruptcy related financing, including DIP financings and exit loan facilities, frequently handle workout matters, and guide both out-of-court and bankruptcy-governed restructurings.
