Norfolk, Va., March 8 – Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer announced the promotion of Ryan Suda to partner, effective May 1, according to a Tuesday press release.

Based in the firm’s New York office, Suda is a member of the firm’s finance practice group, where he advises financial institutions, asset managers, private equity funds and hedge funds in structured finance transactions and other complex financings, often in a cross-border context.

In addition to CLOs, Suda advises clients on regulatory issues in relation to securities laws and the Volcker Rule and has experience in derivatives, leveraged finance, secured and unsecured credit facilities, private placements, asset finance and acquisition finance.

Freshfields also promoted Mary Lehner and Caroline Richard to partners.

“All three are exceptionally talented lawyers committed to client service at the highest level. Their outstanding backgrounds and expertise have further strengthened our capabilities here in the U.S.”
