TLT recruits asset finance specialist

National law firm TLT has recruited banking partner Euan Cluness. Joining from Addleshaw Goddard, Euan brings over a decade of experience advising banks and borrowers on complex and high-profile debt finance transactions.

Boasting in-depth experience in corporate lending, acquisition finance and debt restructuring, Euan has advised NatWest, RBS, HSBC, Barclays, Virgin Money, non-bank lenders and corporate borrowers. He also experience in asset-finance lending.

From TLT’s Edinburgh office, Euan will work with the firm’s banking and restructuring team, providing commercially strategic legal guidance to all its banking clients, as well as a wide variety of businesses in the corporate marketplace. 

Euan said: ‘Having acted for lenders and borrowers in the Scottish corporate and leveraged finance market for almost 20 years, I was very impressed by TLT’s client roster, approach and ambition. I’m joining a strong team in Scotland and across the UK at a very exciting time for the firm as they look to build upon an already substantial growth period.

‘I was also attracted by TLT’s unique culture and values, which I feel match my own and are a rare find in the legal industry. I look forward to working with the team to support the firm’s clients in the corporate lending and leveraged finance space during a significant time of change in the market.’

Peter Carney, partner in the banking and restructuring team, commented: ‘Euan’s appointment places us at the cutting-edge of banking expertise. His in-depth understanding of the market, his relationships and his unrivalled experience of corporate lending will be instrumental in supporting our clients in what is an ever-changing and ever-evolving evolving landscape.’
