Our experience
Our expert lawyers act for both lenders and borrowers. Whether we’re working with global banking institutions, companies or leadership teams, our experienced banking and finance solicitors will provide tailored advice to get the job done.
The team is headed up by Andrew O’Mahony, an experienced corporate lawyer who advises lenders, corporate borrowers and institutional investors on various aspects of banking and finance work. A 'Recommended Lawyer' by The Legal 500, Andrew handles structured and acquisition finance transactions, real estate finance transactions, bridging (short term) finance transactions and general corporate banking.
Richard Cowan has been recommended by The Legal 500 and Chambers & Partners and acts for a wide range of lenders. Helen Burns 'strengthens the team' with her expertise in property finance, as does Michael Francos-Downs who acts for specialist lending institutions to high street banks, challenger banks and peer-to-peer lenders.
We operate across a range of sectors including real estate, housing and regeneration, sport and retail as well as government agencies and charities.
We handle hundreds of millions of pounds in banking transactions every year. We’re particularly active in housing finance, with clients including NatWest, Royal Bank of Scotland, Santander, Arbuthnot Latham & Co and Yorkshire Bank.
“Responsive and quickly understood our commercial risks and drivers in what was a complicated and rather unusual deal.”
Client feedback, The Legal 500
“Having worked with Andrew O’Mahony and Lauren Swanick from Brabners for a significant number of years now, I can’t sing their praises enough. No matter what the situation, they're always efficient and on-hand to help. With their can-do attitude and extensive knowledge, they always provide comprehensive advice very quickly. It’s a pleasure working with them.”
