Kevin’s practice focuses on representing financial institutions, lenders, and corporate clients in a broad range of commercial finance, corporate transactions, restructuring, and bankruptcy matters. He has extensive experience advising clients on secured lending transactions, mergers and acquisitions, and other complex commercial arrangements, including the structuring, negotiation, documentation, and closing of transactions.
A substantial portion of Kevin’s practice is devoted to commercial finance, where he has represented banks, institutional lenders, private lenders, and borrowers in a variety of financing transactions. His experience includes acquisition financing, asset-based lending, revolving and term credit facilities, venture debt, and real estate secured financing. He regularly handles the preparation and negotiation of credit agreements, security agreements, guaranties, intercreditor arrangements, and other financing documents, as well as collateral diligence, lien perfection, and related Uniform Commercial Code matters.
Kevin also advises corporate clients on mergers and acquisitions, corporate governance, business reorganizations, and general commercial transactions. His experience includes representing buyers and sellers in connection with asset and equity acquisitions and dispositions, negotiating purchase agreements and ancillary transaction documents, and advising on corporate organizational and governance matters.
In addition to his transactional practice, Kevin has significant experience in bankruptcy, restructuring, and creditors’ rights matters. He has represented clients in connection with distressed transactions, secured creditor remedies, collateral dispositions, and bankruptcy proceedings, including complex Chapter 11 cases. His experience in both commercial finance and restructuring enables him to advise clients on the legal and commercial considerations affecting transactions throughout the credit lifecycle, from initial loan origination and documentation through workouts, enforcement, and disposition of collateral.

Clarkson in the US Bankruptcy Court (CDCA), as a summer law clerk for the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, and as a legislative intern for the US House Budget Committee.
