DWF has appointed Dean Gormley to lead its finance and restructuring team in Manchester, further strengthening its banking and finance offering in the region. He joins the firm’s finance and restructuring practice with a focus on complex UK and cross-border transactions.
Gormley advises lenders, borrowers and investors across leveraged and acquisition finance, real estate finance, asset-based lending, corporate banking and debt restructurings. He will also work closely with the corporate team to support the firm’s venture capital and private equity clients.
He joins DWF from Clyde & Co, where he was a partner, having spent his career at national and international law firms. He is recognised as a leading individual for banking and finance by Legal 500 and Chambers and Partners.
Gormley said: ‘I’m delighted to be joining DWF as it has a strong reputation in the banking and finance market.’ Stewart Anderson, global head of finance and restructuring at DWF, said Gormley brings ‘a strong track record across real estate finance, ABL and complex structured transactions’.
