Jill H. Feldman

Jill Feldman serves as Chair of Morrison & Foerster's Financial Transactions Group and is a member of the firm's Cleantech Steering Committee. Her practice focuses on international and domestic commercial lending, acquisition finance, mezzanine and second lien finance, equipment leasing and project finance. Before joining Morrison & Foerster, Ms. Feldman was a partner in the San Francisco office of Graham & James, where she was the co-chair of its credit and project finance and development practice.

Because Ms. Feldman’s practice involves highly complex transactions, she often creates unique finance structures to meet the needs of her clients. She develops creative solutions that preserve her client’s financial and operational objectives, while accommodating the requirements of the other parties to the transaction. Her goal is the ultimate success of the deal and her client’s satisfaction with the terms of its agreements. Ms. Feldman has substantial experience representing agents, lenders, borrowers, lessors and lessees in big ticket and middle market, domestic and cross-border, credit facilities, acquisition facilities, asset-based credit facilities, second-lien credit facilities, letter of credit facilities and purchase money and equipment finance leasing transactions. Ms. Feldman also regularly represents private equity funds, investors, purchasers and sellers in renewable energy project and infrastructure construction and finance transactions.

Ms. Feldman has substantial experience in negotiating and closing domestic and cross-border financing transactions for clients in a number of industry sectors, including large-scale manufacturing, wines and spirits, pharmaceuticals, technology and intellectual property (including software and hardware), real estate, exercise facilities and clubs, renewable energy (wind, solar, biomass and landfill gas), and conventional energy.
