Jason C. Ewart, ’07, Joins Clifford Chance as Partner
Clifford Chance hires partner Jason C. Ewart, growing US leveraged finance and capital market capabilities
International law firm Clifford Chance appointed Jason C. Ewart as a partner in its Global Financial Markets team as the firm expands its US Leveraged Finance group.
The hiring of Ewart, who advises on private debt and alternative capital financings as well as traditional leveraged finance and capital markets transactions, meets growing market demand for private credit as a source of funding. He is joined by UK-based partner Thomas Critchley, who relocates to the US later this month to bolster the firm's sponsor-side leveraged finance capability.
Ewart has represented a variety of direct lenders, mezzanine funds, private debt and structured equity providers, and other financial institutions in complex financing transactions. His more than 15 years' experience spans advising clients on banking, financial markets and environment, social and governance (ESG) matters. He has represented issuers and financial institutions in traditional public and private markets transactions, including on SEC-registered transactions.
