Commercial Finance

Waller Lansden’s Finance and Restructuring attorneys have gained the trust of banks, specialty finance companies and commercial lenders as well as publicly traded multinational corporations and privately held mid-market companies in commercial finance transactions, restructuring activities and bankruptcy matters. Waller Lansden’s multidisciplinary approach provides insight early in the negotiation and structuring of a finance transaction that often helps to either eliminate or minimize clients' risks should the other party face unexpected business challenges in the future. Similarly, restructuring clients benefit from this cross disciplinary approach with the complimentary experience and resources added by attorneys whose practices focus on commercial finance and corporate transactions.

Our attorneys have extensive experience structuring debt financing transactions involving banks, commercial finance companies, REITs, private equity funds and venture capital firms as well as a wide range of corporate borrowers. This includes senior, subordinated, mezzanine, first lien and second lien transactions. This unique blend of lender-side and borrower-side experience helps clients achieve their business objectives in mergers and acquisitions, going private transactions and real estate, facility and equipment purchases.

We represent the most active healthcare specialty lenders in the country, many of whom are headquartered in New York, Pennsylvania and California. Waller Lansden has earned a national reputation for creative insight and professional commitment.
