Former Dentons Partner and Co-head of the Banking and Finance team Piotr Nerwinski has joined Greenberg Traurig as Partner and Head of the Project and Structured Finance along with a team of six lawyers.
According to Greenberg Traurig, this will lead to the creation of a new Greenberg Traurig Project and Structured Finance Practice in Warsaw under Nerwinski’s leadership.
Before the move, Nerwinski spent the last ten years with Dentons where he co-led the Banking and Finance team (as reported by CEE Legal Matters on May 30, 2023). Earlier, he was a Managing Associate with Deloitte Legal in 2014, a Lawyer with Wardynski & Partners between 2010 and 2013, and a Lawyer with Rakowski & Partners between 2008 and 2010.
The team joining alongside Nerwinski includes Counsels Pawel Dlugoborski and Justyna Jamrozy, Senior Associate Jakub Walawski, Associate Malgorzata Czarnecka, and Junior Associates Weronika Lakoma and Aleksandra Grzeskowiak
“This significant lateral move and the addition of a highly respected Project and Structured Finance Practice to our Warsaw office underscores the commitment of Greenberg Traurig to our European presence and our dedication to collaborative growth across the region," commented Greenberg Traurig Executive Chairman Richard A. Rosenbaum.
“We are thrilled to welcome Piotr and his accomplished team to Greenberg Traurig," said Senior Partner Lejb Fogelman. "Their exceptional legal expertise will be instrumental in elevating our firm and our office, particularly as we anticipate further market changes and the growing demand for specialized legal services in financings of large-scale projects."
“I would like to warmly welcome Piotr and our new colleagues to Greenberg Traurig," added Managing Partner of Greenberg Traurig in Poland Jolanta Nowakowska-Zimoch. "Your arrival has already generated significant synergies within our team and has been met with enthusiasm by our clients."
