McDermott Will & Schulte have announced that Andrea Giaretta has joined the firm as partner in the Transactions Practice Group in Milan, contributing to the expansion of the firm’s banking and corporate finance capabilities in Italy.
Andrea has developed strong experience advising sponsors, financial institutions and alternative lenders on a broad range of financing transactions, including real estate finance, leveraged and acquisition finance, structured finance and distressed debt matters. His deep understanding of the Italian market, combined with substantial exposure to cross border transactions, aligns seamlessly with the Firm’s ability to provide clients with integrated, full service support on financial matters connected to the Italian market.
“Andrea’s arrival marks another step in the expansion of our finance practice in Milan, following the recent promotion of Nicolò Perricone to Income Partner. His profile complements the strengths already present within the team and enables us to further broaden the range of services we offer to clients operating in the Italian market,” said Giancarlo Castorino, Milan office managing partner.
Andrea joins the firm with a strong pedigree gained at leading international law firms. His experience advising major financial institutions on both domestic and multi jurisdictional financings positions him to contribute immediately to McDermott’s expanding finance platform in Italy and across Europe.
“Andrea’s knowledge of the Italian market, combined with his hands on financing experience, makes him a highly strategic addition to our team,” said Harris Siskind, global head of McDermott’s Transactions Practice Group. “His arrival enhances our offering in Italy and further reinforces the firm’s positioning as a go to partner for finance transactions at both the national and European level.”
Andrea’s addition to the Italian team reflects McDermott’s continued investment in strengthening its banking and finance capabilities in Italy. His arrival further enhances the role of the Milan office within the firm’s European platform, which is also expanding in France with the recent addition of a new team in Paris.
