Partner
Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP
As head of Skadden Los Angeles’ Banking Group, Leila Sayegh leads innovative financing transactions that often are critical to a company’s survival, enabling game-changing acquisitions and recapitalizations and facilitating her client’s available credit for a variety of growth initiatives. She has advised clients in multiple industries on financings for multiple billion-dollar deals, multi-currency cross-border senior secured credit facilities and complex restructuring financings, among others. For Sayegh, the more complicated or esoteric the financing need, the more frequently she is called on by her clients.
Among her recent significant highlighted transactions has been Sayegh’s work representing NGL Energy Partners LP, a publicly traded diversified midstream MLP, in connection with $2.9 billion of refinancing transactions, consisting of $2.2 billion in senior secured notes, $700 million senior secured term loan facility and an amendment and restatement of its $600 million ABL credit facility.
