International law firm Morgan Lewis has hired Merryn Craske as a partner in its London office to advise on securitization and structured finance transactions.

Craske, who will start at the firm on March 1, will advise banks, originators and other financial institutions on transactions for a range of asset classes, including auto loans and leases, dealer floor plan receivables, residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, trade receivables and insurance premium loans.

“Collaborating with colleagues in London and around the world, Merryn’s arrival in a key financial hub will build on our ability to counsel multinational clients on their most complex, cross-border matters,” Reed Auerbach, a Morgan Lewis partner and global head of the firm’s structured transactions practice. “Her wide-ranging practice is a great fit with our full-service platform.”

Craske joins Morgan Lewis from Mayer Brown, where she was also a partner in its London office. In addition to securitization, Merryn has handled other banking and finance transactions, including secured lending, derivatives, debt capital markets, project finance and acquisition finance.
