Increasingly active out of London and with strong well-established regional coverage throughout the UK, the 'highly knowledgeable and professional' team at Addleshaw Goddard is able to service a mix of stakeholders across a growing range of asset finance transactions. Although he is adept at handling work across various transportation asset classes, the 'diligent and detailed' Simon Gwynne is best-known for his work in the rail sector, a facet of the practice which he has galvanised since joining the firm in 2022 from Norton Rose Fulbright. In Edinburgh, Ed Watt takes the lead on much of the corporate/commercial and finance work on the shipping front, while Manchester-based Andrew Maskill primarily handles mid-ticket equipment finance/leasing mandates.
