We provide comprehensive services related to handling the processes of granting financing both in the form of credit and in other forms, including through the issuance of bonds or loans.

We advise on projects to provide financing of all types, especially corporate finance, financing for the acquisition of shares, stocks or assets of other entities (acquisition finance), including leveraged buyouts, management buyouts, and mezzanine financing.

We represent both providers and recipients of financing.

Our clients include domestic and foreign banks, mezzanine funds, other financial institutions, bondholders, as well as borrowers and bond issuers. The exact scope of services is, in each and every instance, tailored to the needs of the client and the specifics of the transaction.

We cooperate with a number of foreign law firms, which enables us to provide a one stop shop service in projects involving multiple jurisdictions.

  • Structuring transactions to provide financing or restructure existing debt
  • Preparation and negotiation of financing documentation, including full loan documentation, mezzanine loan documentation, bond issue documentation and collateral documentation
  • Indication of limitations in obtaining financing and establishing collateral in light of documentation on financing already provided
  • Restructuring of financing
  • Confirming validity and effectiveness of the concluded documents to the financing entities and issue of legal opinions
  • Analysis and confirmation of compliance with the conditions of the financing provided
  • Preparation and negotiation of documentation related to the acquisition or divestment of receivables
  • Handling the process of registering collateral or transferring it to another entity

The basic principle that unites our team is to build relationships based on respect and trust.

We have been advising entrepreneurs for 30 years, so we understand the nature of business and how to properly support it. We focus on efficiency, transparency and partnership.
