Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP is a full-service global law firm, with more than 1,000 lawyers in 16 offices worldwide, including Brussels, Century City, Dallas, Denver, Dubai, London, Los Angeles, Munich, New York, Orange County, Palo Alto, Paris, San Francisco, São Paulo, Singapore, and Washington, DC. The firm is recognized for excellence in legal services, and Gibson Dunn lawyers routinely represent clients in their most complex and high-profile litigation and transactional matters throughout the world.

The firm's Global Finance Practice Group consists of approximately 60 attorneys, in addition to a number of attorneys in complementary practices. The group focuses on the representation of lenders, borrowers, underwriters, and issuers in a wide variety of debt and structured finance transactions, including leveraged loans, high-yield bond offerings, first lien/second lien financings, mezzanine debt, project finance, equipment financings, securitizations, and restructurings. During the past three years, Gibson Dunn handled finance transactions with an aggregate value in excess of $247 billion. Also during this period, the group has handled leveraged loan facilities aggregating more than $66 billion and helped clients raise over $6.8 billion in 18 high-yield issues. Over the last year, the group has been involved in a large number of in-court and out-of-court restructuring transactions ranging from exchange offers for outstanding debt to DIP and exit financings.

The firm consistently ranks among industry leaders in leveraged finance transactions. Much of the firm’s work involves complex customized financings, rather than commoditized work. The Gibson Dunn finance group’s leverage (ratio of associates to partners) is significantly lower than that of comparable groups at peer firms, enhancing our quality control. As counsel to both capital providers and capital users, the group’s lawyers understand the issues critical to all participants in financing transactions. Gibson Dunn is proud of the firm’s team-oriented approach among offices and across practice groups, which ensures that all members of the group are fully informed on recent developments and issues. The group’s clients include private equity firms, hedge funds, major investment and commercial banks and companies at the forefront of market developments, giving us sophisticated current market knowledge.
