    Private credit work covers privately negotiated debt financing for mid‑market borrowers, including sponsor‑backed or corporate clients. A solicitor in this area drafts and negotiates facility agreements, guarantees, security packages (such as debentures and mortgages), intercreditor arrangements, and hedging documentation, and advises on drawdowns, repayments, covenants, and representations. They coordinate with lenders, sponsors, and borrower management, ensure regulatory and accounting considerations are addressed, and oversee potential restructures, enforcement steps, and insolvency options when necessary.

    “Rachel Bushell, Ash Simpson, Michelle Pollard and Chris helped us with four residential remortgage cases recently and the entire process was very smooth and only took 4 weeks (one case only took 14 days!) which in the current Covid environment is nothing short of a miracle! Very happy with the professional services and expertise of Nelsons' residential and commerical conveyancing team and Nelsons' corporate team and would highly recommend them to anyone.”
