Finance
YOU are engaged in structured finance, lending to clients through complex transactions. You complete deals across the UK and beyond. But you instruct lawyers only from the City of London. Why?
Alternatively, you are a finance director borrowing to support your company's expansion - you want commercial, focussed and cost effective advice. Do you still need to go to London?
Bond Pearce's finance lawyers are often based in the City, but the firm's roots in regional capitals now support a thriving, expert practice in those legal specialisms formerly regarded as the exclusive domain of London lawyers.
"We've successfully dispelled scepticism about the competence of firms outside the Square Mile to do this work", Graham Jeffries, banking partner at Bond Pearce, says.
Bond Pearce offers expertise in five key areas of lending - acquisition (or leveraged) finance, asset-based lending, project finance, property finance and ship finance.
"Each area has its unique challenges and its own approach," Julian Kinsey, another partner in the Banking team comments. "It means dealing with the gamut of lenders from stock financiers to major financial institutions."
"We're also instructed by an increasing number of finance directors about their borrowing needs."
"We enjoy panel appointments with a number of the leading financiers in this area working on domestic and cross border transactions including project financings, private company acquisitions, management buy-outs, management buy-ins and other institutional buy-outs," Graham says.
"Our focus is on delivering solutions to issues encountered in transactions, offering pragmatic and commercial advice.
