Prior to joining Stradling, Mr. Rosen spent eight years at Latham & Watkins and also was a partner at Los Angeles-based middle market firm Manatt Phelps. Before moving to Los Angeles in 2004, Mr. Rosen worked at UBS in Tokyo, first in the investment banking department executing UBS's debt and equity mandates there, and then as a director in its legal department.
"We are very pleased to have Dayan join us and lead our debt finance team. He's the perfect complement to our expanding private equity group and under his leadership we expect great things will happen quickly," says David Lafitte, Shareholder, Director, and member of the Firm's Executive Committee.
Mr. Rosen has broad debt finance experience which includes representing financial institutions, private equity firms and portfolio companies in leveraged finance and other lending transactions, including acquisition financings, middle market debt financings, broadly syndicated debt financings, asset based lending and a broad variety of cash flow based debt financings. Those include first and second lien debt, unitranche financings, mezzanine debt and others. At prior firms, on the private equity side, he worked extensively with Oaktree Capital Management and The Gores Group and on the financial institution side he has led transactions for UBS, Fifth Third Bank, Barclays, Credit Suisse, JPMorgan and Wells Fargo.
"Stradling has solid private equity, portfolio company and lender relationships and I look forward to providing enhanced debt finance capabilities for Stradling to these important groups," says Dayan Rosen.
As one of the west coast's leading business law firms with more than 120 attorneys practicing in 7 offices including Newport Beach, Sacramento, San Diego, San Francisco, Santa Barbara, Santa Monica and Reno, Mr. Rosen's debt finance and financial services practice is a natural fit for the Stradling platform. He is the newest of 10 attorneys to join Stradling this month and one of three new hires in the Santa Monica office. Anthony Arnold, whose practice focuses on finance, M&A and private equity transactions, venture capital and emerging companies, joins Stradling in Santa Monica after practicing at top-tier law firms in Los Angeles and serving in an in-house role at Oaktree Capital Management. Chase Morello also joins the Santa Monica office where his practice will focus on mergers and acquisitions, finance, and private equity.
Stradling's clients include emerging and high growth public and private companies as well as private equity funds and venture capital groups and their respective portfolio companies. Widely recognized for its expertise, responsiveness and outstanding client service, the Firm's size, structure, and culture allow it to provide the highest quality representation while maintaining the responsiveness and relationships commonly associated with smaller firms.
