Elizabeth Sluder joined Norton Rose Fulbright‘s top-tier projects team as a partner in Los Angeles.

Sluder will focus on project finance, mergers and acquisitions, private equity and general corporate matters. She represents clients in renewable energy transactions, including construction and term debt financings, tax equity investments and negotiating supply agreements, construction contracts and offtake arrangements. She also represents lenders and borrowers in secured lending as well as private banking and mezzanine and junior capital financing. She moved to Norton Rose Fulbright from Morrison & Foerster.

“Elizabeth is a top of class lawyer with an impressive track record of success for clients in the renewables space,” Jeff Cody, U.S. managing partner at Norton Rose Fulbright, said. “With Elizabeth’s addition to our Los Angeles office, we are strengthening and expanding our West Coast capabilities and our world-leading projects team.”

“Elizabeth is the third lateral partner we have added to our projects group in the last few months,” Keith Martin, U.S. co-head of projects at Norton Rose Fulbright, said. “She is someone whom many of us saw across the table on deals and were impressed with her skill at moving complicated transactions across the finish line. She is smart and very well organized.”

“Norton Rose Fulbright’s projects team is widely regarded as a global leader, handling some of the most innovative and complex renewables projects,” Slunder said. “I am excited to collaborate with this dynamic team on providing outstanding client service.”
