Real Estate Finance Team Joins King & Spalding’s New York Office

King & Spalding today announced that Erik Andersen, Elizabeth Gable and Jared Zaben have joined the firm as partners in the firm’s Corporate, Finance and Investments practice group. The team has joined the firm’s New York office and advises financial institutions, alternative capital and debt funds, private equity funds, family offices and other money sources in real estate related transactions.  All three join King & Spalding from Riemer & Braunstein LLP and additional lawyers are expected to join the team shortly.

“Expanding King & Spalding’s transactional capabilities in New York and growing traditionally strong practices has been a deliberate strategic priority,” said Robert D. Hays, Jr., chairman of King & Spalding. “The addition of Erik, Elizabeth, Jared and their team will give us additional depth and talent to further build out our transactional practice in New York and other key markets. We are delighted to welcome them to the firm.”

“Increasing the talent of our real estate finance team which complements our current portfolio of work for financial institutions with a real estate focus is an important development for us,” said Todd Holleman, head of the firm’s Corporate, Finance and Investment practice group. “Their client-centric sensibilities and collaborative work style will fit right in with the rest of the practice. We are looking forward to integrating the team into the firm.”
