Jeanne

Jeanne Siegel represents financial institutions in myriad complex business finance transactions, including commercial finance, factoring and structured finance.

Jeanne’s career devotion to the financial world means that her clients—banking and finance professionals—trust her to understand their specific needs and priorities. As counsel representing financial institutions before entering private practice, she served for two decades as an in-house attorney with national and regional banks and in the General Counsel’s office of a major investment bank.

Today, Jeanne represents diverse financial institutions in highly complex transactions. Her thorough knowledge of transactions such as middle market asset-based lending, accounts receivable purchase transactions, letter of credit facilities and participations is second to none. She also represents financial institutions in single bank, and agented secured and unsecured revolving credit and term loans.

Often working with non-bank lenders such as commercial finance firms and factors, Jeanne always uses her depth and breadth of experience to find creative solutions and get the deal done. She is strategic, practical and efficient, able to quickly find the best path to a successfully closed deal.

Jeanne’s clients appreciate that she speaks their language and negotiates agreements even when there are challenges working with borrowers. She meets parties on all sides of a deal where they are and amicably works out the issues. Jeanne’s practice, she says, is “people oriented,” with clients she has worked with for many years and who become her close friends. While she takes serving her clients quite seriously, she never wants to take herself too seriously.
