Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP has steadily expanded its capital markets practice over recent years. Alongside a strong record in debt offerings, its sizeable issuer client base provides a wealth of repeat engagements, including equity issuances. At-the-market offerings were a particular feature of the practice in 2023. The firm is also growing its underwriter client base. With multiple offices across the country, it has strong links to multiple industries. New York-based Andrew Fabens is co-chair of the capital markets team and has an outstanding client base of major corporates. Denver partner Robyn Zolman is another key figure.
