K&L Gates has welcomed Richard Gray as partner in its Sydney office, who joins from HWL Ebsworth.
Throughout his career, he has also advised on lending, swaps, major workouts, and European, US and domestic note issues and programs.
Over the years, Mr Gray has built up a significant client base, which includes lenders, borrowers and arrangers across a broad range of sectors, such as property, government, resources, infrastructure, energy, transport, innovation, funds management, hotels and finance.
“Richard’s addition, along with the recent appointment of special counsel Eric Boone, broadens and diversifies K&L Gates’ banking and finance capabilities in Australia and around the globe,” said Nick Nichola, K&L Gates’ managing partner, Australia.
