Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP offers a strong bench of advisors who are ‘excellent collaborators’ and whom possess the ’ability to provide market perspective on transactions and negotiating positions.’ The firm handles a diverse stream of financing transactions that includes debt, equity and tax equity financings as well as refinancings and acqusition financings for a wide roster of developers, investors and sponsors particularly focused on wind, solar and battery storage matters. Team lead Elizabeth Hanigan is based in Chicago and covers the transactional waterfront of renewable energy assets, whereas fellow co-head and Washington DC attorney Stephen Spina is a go-to for utility clients. Neeraj Arora has been active on construction loan financings, acqusition financings, and tax equity financings over the past twelve months, sitting in the Los Angeles office. Laura Neumeister Wright splits her time between New York and Chicago and has presided over novel novel production tax credit agreements and sustainability-linked credit facilities as part of a formidable book of renewable energy mandates. Boston’s Amy Maloney continues to be a prominent name in the practice and for sponsors, lenders and developers and has been a leading name on the firm’s large-scale gas-fired energy projects.
