Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP’s ‘deep, highly experienced team’ maintains close relations with leading sponsors as well as a wide array of middle-market funds. The New York-based team’s broad capabilities enable it to advise clients on high-value buyouts and take-private acquisitions, especially in the tech, retail and financial services sectors, as well as on a growing volume of minority stake deals, investments in growth company fundraising rounds, and portfolio company transactions. Steven Steinman, an experienced practitioner with broad M&A and private equity capabilities, leads the practice. Other key contacts include Christopher Ewan, who is active across hedge fund and PE-backed investments, and Randi Lally, whose broad expertise spans carve-outs, recapitalizations, and mergers as well as private equity-linked corporate governance issues. Longstanding private equity expert Robert Schwenkel remains highly regarded for his advice on club deals, and Mark Lucas is a key contact for transactions in the tech, industrials, and infrastructure sectors. Amber Banks and Brian Mangino left the team in September 2023.
