Womble Bond Dickinson announced today that Joel L. Perrell Jr. has joined the Baltimore office as a partner in the Capital Markets group. Perrell brings decades of experience representing diverse clients in bankruptcy cases, insolvency proceedings, restructurings, and workouts domestically and internationally involving cryptocurrency, retail, manufacturing, healthcare, transport, real estate, insurance, and other commercial businesses.
Perrell is one of few attorneys in the country with a practice focused on all aspects of insurance premium finance. This secured lending product enables a company to acquire insurance coverage without a large, upfront premium payment. He advises the full range of participants operating in this space on matters concerning regulation and compliance, legislative and regulatory monitoring, operations, obtaining and renewing sources of lending capital for premium finance lenders, mergers and acquisitions and related due diligence, collateral enhancement, support and protection, fraud detection and related policies, and collection and enforcement of loans both in and out of court and in bankruptcy proceedings.
“Joel is a highly credentialed and skilled attorney with an excellent reputation in the Baltimore legal market and is an ideal fit for our firm,” said Baltimore Office Managing Partner Barry J. Herman. “A key contributor to our success has been remaining true to our core values. Joel is a strategic and complementary addition to this office and the firm’s Capital Markets practice.”
