Holman Fenwick Willan has promoted Jasel Chauhan to Partner in the firm's Piraeus office.
Chauhan specializes on corporate shipping and finance matters, including ship finance, joint ventures, hire purchase and leasing transactions, corporate restructuring and reorganization, shipping investment funds, shipbuilding and builder credits, interest rate and currency derivatives and security enforcement. He has also been involved in several high profile restructurings of Greek-based shipowners and managers in recent years. Prior to joining HFW, Jasel trained and then practiced at Nabarro as a general banking and finance solicitor with particular focus on property finance, acquisition finance, asset-based lending and securitization.
Along with Chauhan's promotion, the firm promoted another five lawyers to Partner in the firm's London office. Richard Crump, HFW's Senior Partner, said: “As we continue our strategy of growth in our core sectors, we are delighted to welcome to the partnership these high-calibre individuals, with the range of skills they bring. We are particularly pleased that we are seeing talent from across the firm come through the ranks, as we continue to strengthen the services we are able to offer clients."
