Winston offers a comprehensive cross-practice area Public Company Advisory Group, which leverages the collective experience of our Capital Markets and Securities, M&A, Employee Benefits & Executive Compensation, Intellectual Property, Labor & Employment, Complex Commercial and Securities Litigation, and Tax practices, to advise our clients on the wide range of issues they face as public companies. With extensive experience providing top-tier legal counsel to our clients, we have cultivated a deep reservoir of knowledge in SEC reporting and compliance, capital markets, executive compensation, and corporate governance matters, earning the trust of numerous public company clients as their legal advisors in these critical areas.
Industry
Winston is well regarded for deep and broad experience advising clients in the development, construction, financing and refinancing, acquisition, and operation of major infrastructure assets, including several award-winning deals and public-private-partnership (PPPs or P3s) projects in North America, Latin America, and Europe. Recognized for our ability to “take complex issues and boil them down to pragmatic solutions” (Chambers USA 2023), our team represents a diverse mix of participants and stakeholders in a broad range of investments and non-recourse/limited recourse financings, and we have experience working on many of the most complex projects, within aggressive time frames, while employing inventive solutions. Likewise, our lawyers help to identify and quantify roadblocks and risks at an early stage, so that we can help our clients—which include developers and sponsors, a full range of lenders and investors, project owners and operators, governments and their agencies, and other project counterparties—evaluate and, to the extent possible, mitigate or eliminate risk.
Industry
Insurance plays an essential role in risk mitigation for financial services companies. As risks evolve, questions often arise concerning the scope of insurance coverage and the interpretation and application of policy provisions. Winston’s insurance lawyers provide companies with best-in-class advice, corporate and transactional counsel, and, if need be, litigation defense in high-stakes coverage disputes and class actions. We have achieved excellent outcomes for our clients in matters involving a wide variety of insurance policies and claims, including cybersecurity, travel, long-term care, and annuities, among others. Moreover, we have experience in emerging issues and industries, such as blockchain technology and artificial intelligence, both of which present insurers with a unique and complicated set of risks and opportunities.

Nicholas Usher Discusses U.S. Alternatives Managers’ Interest in European Investments with FundFire
Winston & Strawn London Office Managing Partner Nicholas Usher was quoted in a FundFire article discussing European investments, the challenges that might arise from firms branching out from the U.S. to Europe, and how investing in Europe is different than investing in the U.S. United States-based alternatives managers are looking at dealmaking in Europe as a viable investment, due in part to optimism around a relatively steadier capital-raising environment in Europe and what appears to be greater deal activity in key sectors, including the European defense industry, but these opportunities require a high level of commitment from U.S. fund managers to ensure their European investments succeed.
