Background

About Andrew Fowler

What I do: Teaming with Clients for success. Understanding complex systems. Analyzing uncertainties. Assessing and mitigating risk. I am a partner active in the Firm’s Aviation, Corporate, Finance and Securities and Capital Markets groups, and have acted for transactions aggregating well over $100 billion. I focus on aviation finance matters and represent lessors, underwriters and other market players in numerous aircraft portfolio securitizations, equity offerings, loans, structured and equipment financings, JVs and secured loans. A number of my Aviation transactions have been named “Deals of the Year” or received other accolades. I also represent issuers and financial institutions on public and private capital markets offerings, general corporate, governance and SEC reporting issues. My experience includes straight, high-yield and convertible debt, IPOs, secondary equity offerings, pre-IPO and venture financings, Reg D offerings, exchange offers, and other public and private equity and debt offerings. I also represent issuers and investment banks on infrastructure project financings and other complex structured and secured debt issues. I handle finance and securities aspects of bankruptcies, in- and out-of-court corporate restructurings, and distressed debt workouts. I advise on corporate governance, liability management, Sarbanes-Oxley compliance, SEC periodic reporting, issues under the Investment Company Act of 1940, and other securities law and corporate matters. As part of my pro bono work, I have advised a consortium including the Red Cross, UJA Federation and Catholic Charities, among others, as they coordinated efforts to help those affected by the September 11 attacks. I also have experience with charter school formation and the legal issues faced by colleges and other educational institutions.
