Latham Watkins has appointed Jim Fogarty as a partner in its structured finance practice, where he will represent a range of clients, including private equity sponsors, private capital lenders, financial institutions and asset managers in complex structured and securitization transactions.
Fogarty's experience is in whole business securitizations that raised capital for a broad range of assets, including restaurant and home service franchise agreements, intellectual property and performing rights organizations, according to a statement from Latham & Watkins.
Fogarty also represents clients in securitization workouts and liability management transactions that use securitization structures.
"Jim will be a go-to resource for out clients in New York and globally, increasingly looking for bespoke capital raising and investment solutions," said Marc Jaffe, office managing partner of Latham & Watkins' New York office.
Previously, Fogarty was at White & Case, after receiving his J.D. from the University of Notre Dame, according to the company.
