Brown Rudnick adds partner

International law firm Brown Rudnick hired Frederic Rosenberg as a partner focusing on asset securitization in its New York-based structured finance group. Formerly from Weil, Gotshal & Manges, Rosenberg's experience includes more traditional and esoteric asset classes such as emerging market debt as well as music royalties and other IP assets. He was also part of the structuring and marketing of two sports facility revenue-backed securitizations for the Pepsi Center in Denver and STAPLES Center in Los Angeles. Brown Rudnick's structured finance group has been adding several partners to its New York office. In July, Thomas Cassidy joined the firm, bringing over 15 years of ABS and MBS experience, while Madeleine M.L. Tan was hired in May to focus on asset-backed, tax-advantaged and structured finance transactions.
