Profile
Mayer Brown's Projects & Infrastructure team advises clients on all types of infrastructure transactions—from project development and finance through the purchase and sale of infrastructure assets and companies. Our team is built on the historical strengths of our Banking & Finance, Government Transactions, and Corporate & Securities practices, providing comprehensive legal counsel across aviation and transportation matters. With more than 80 lawyers and offices in key financial centers including New York, London, Hong Kong, Singapore, Tokyo, Houston, Dubai, and Rio de Janeiro, our international presence uniquely positions us to bring new projects to fruition and consummate infrastructure transactions across the globe.
Our practice consistently sets precedent and drives market growth. We have been ranked Band 1 for US PPPs by Chambers USA for 13 consecutive years, honored as Project Finance Group of the Year by Law360 every year since 2017, and named "Law Firm of the Year" by Infrastructure Investor. Our experience and resources have proven to be the key to getting the deal done.
Mayer Brown has a dedicated team of aviation lawyers with broad experience across the global aviation industry. We provide legal services to airlines, manufacturers, lenders, lessors, and airport and aviation authorities on all aspects of their operations. The aviation industry operates within a financially complex and heavily regulated global landscape, yet its leading businesses remain commercially dynamic and responsive to change. Mayer Brown deploys experienced, pragmatic, and strategically astute lawyers across the world's financial centers and primary aviation territories. Many are leading practitioners who leverage the firm's full capabilities and innovate when solutions require it. Our Transportation group has substantial experience meeting today's global transportation industry needs, developed through high-profile projects worldwide and handling construction, regulatory, transactional, and dispute resolution matters.
We offer comprehensive legal services across the aviation sector, including airports and airport infrastructure, aircraft acquisition, disposal, and financing, operating leasing and maintenance, corporate finance and mergers and acquisitions, international trade controls and regulation, antitrust and competition, business aviation and rotary wing, regulatory matters, and dispute resolution and repossession.
Our lawyers understand infrastructure across all asset classes. We advise sponsors, lenders, and public bodies on the financing, development, and management of greenfield assets and the acquisition, sale, leasing, and financing of existing assets. Our experience spans transportation (roads, bridges, rail, mass transit, airports, and maritime ports), communications (cell towers, data centers, broadband, and fiber optics), energy, and social infrastructure (hospitals, schools, public buildings, and stadiums). Our integrated team combines deep industry knowledge with cross-border transactional experience to structure innovative projects and close transactions with the world's leading infrastructure investors.
