Key cases/experience – representative matters
Urgent Loan Documentation and Settlement
A borrower faced forfeiting its deposit unless settlement proceeded the following day. Loan documentation was prepared and issued on instruction, with execution coordinated to position the transaction for settlement before the required cut-off.
Multi-Jurisdictional Refinance and Property Acquisition
A complex transaction involved refinancing multiple creditors across three Australian jurisdictions and settling the purchase of an additional property. The matter required accurate coordination of several parties, securities and settlement requirements.
Complex Refinance and Priority Arrangement
A refinance involving three borrowers, seven guarantors, three secured properties and multiple trusts raised a priority issue affecting the lender’s position. A letter of priority was prepared and the transaction settled within the required timeframe.
