The Experience to Pioneer

The experience to pioneer

Proskauer’s Private Credit Transactions Group is a dedicated finance practice with a large team of lawyers based in key financial centers, including New York, London, Paris, Los Angeles, Boston, and Chicago. Our breadth and diversity give our clients a clear view of the market. We consistently close more than 150 deals a year, giving private credit providers real-time insight into trends across deal sizes, structures, and industries.

Our technical strength and market experience help private credit providers pursue first-in-kind transactions. We have developed innovative structures such as upside-down unitranches and synthetic mezzanines and helped bring bifurcated unitranche structures to the European market. For more than 20 years, we have been active in the market and have contributed to the evolution of credit products, including senior-stretch loans, unitranche loans, second lien loans, and secured mezzanines.

Proskauer maintains a proprietary database that gives private credit providers a market edge. With more than 200 searchable terms, the database provides our clients with real-time intelligence on the credit markets.
