Headed by Mark Edwards, Ashurst has established a very strong reputation in the mid to upper-mid market for lenders funding sponsor-backed acquisitions. Ross Ollerhead is highly active in the practice, including for core client BlackRock, with work running the gamut from new money M&A deals as well as more bespoke financings involving some distress. Helen Burton is also very skilled at handling private credit transactions, including unitranche structures, as is Laura Ho, who has developed a particularly strong reputation in relation to infrastructure deals. The firm also draws upon traditional banking relationships to solely fund deals, as well as increasingly alongside credit funds on club deals. Senior partner Nigel Ward has experience at handling both leveraged and infrastructure finance mandates.
