The attorneys in Brach Eichler’s Financial Services Practice Group take a collaborative interdisciplinary approach to transactions to ensure that our clients receive the advice necessary to compete and succeed in today’s complex financial marketplace.  These attorneys recognize that the financial services industry is constantly evolving.  The involvement of banks, hedge funds, private investment and other non-bank lenders in financing transactions requires that those involved in such transactions have experience in and a deep understanding of numerous disciplines.  The attorneys at Brach Eichler have the experience to successfully handle such transactions.

Our group handles a broad range of corporate transactions for clients of all sizes, from small, closely-held businesses to large corporations.  We represent private companies at all stages of development, from established family businesses to start-up and emerging businesses.  More specifically, we counsel national and regional banks, hedge funds, private investment funds, mezzanine funds, commercial finance companies and various other non-bank lenders in all areas of commercial lending, including:

•  asset-based financing
   
•  real estate acquisition
   
•  development and construction financing
   
•  general secured/cash flow financing
   
•  second lien financing
   
•  industrial revenue bond financing/tax-free financing
   
•  health care financing
   
•  mezzanine financing
   
•  equipment lease financing

Our group has a great deal of experience in health care financing and regularly works with banks to provide lending to hospitals, nursing home facilities and assisted living facilities, as well as structuring financing for surgery centers.  A significant amount of our time is also devoted to commercial real estate--guiding businesses such as construction companies, supermarkets, restaurant franchises, homebuilders, retail and department stores, and apartment buildings on leasing, loans and borrowing for leasehold improvements.

When necessary, the group works in collaboration with attorneys skilled in other practice areas, such as business transactions and business law, real estate, employment law, health law and litigation, in order to satisfy the clients’ needs in the most efficient and economical manner.
