Winston & Strawn Recognized in Airfinance Journal’s Guide to Lawyers 2021

Winston & Strawn has been named leading law firm for Export Credit Agency deals and ranked 3rd for Latin American aviation work in the new edition of Airfinance Journal’s Guide to Lawyers 2021. The latest AirFinance Journal Survey, launched on July 14, 2021, uses a points system to reflect transaction complexity as well as the law firm’s role in a transaction. 

Winston & Strawn topped the rankings in the Export Credit category. Winston & Strawn also placed 3rd for Latin American aviation work. The Survey reports on major developments in the region last year and the use by LATAM, Avianca, and Aeromexico of legal protection under the U.S. Chapter 11 regime to carry out their respective restructuring programs. 

Airfinance Journal received submissions from 18 firms compiling 1035 deals overall. The rankings for Winston give credit to the team’s ability to handle complex, multi-jurisdictional matters in the aviation sector, and our continued leading position in the aircraft financing industry.
