Gemsbok Partners LLC was founded in 2025 by two senior-level lawyers with a combined 75+ years of experience in all aspects of the global capital markets and corporate governance. We bring a wealth of expertise across a broad spectrum of legal, financial, and operational matters.
Gemsbok Partners offers high-quality independent director services tailored for entities ranging from special purpose vehicles used in securitizations and structured finance transactions, to fund managers and advisors and companies undergoing restructuring or navigating complex transactions.
Drawing from our legal backgrounds and broad experiences in transactional matters and adversarial matters, we are attuned to our clients’ needs for careful attention to deal terms and dynamics. We understand better than most our clients’ needs for timely and thoughtful responses, and for practical, business-oriented solutions.
Our core focus is on delivering experienced and practical independent director services in areas that match our areas of legal expertise - securitization and structured finance of both esoteric and standard asset classes, public-private partnership (PPP) project finance, real estate finance, and corporate workouts (both court-based and out-of-court). Whether you are managing a distressed asset, completing a complex securitization, or restructuring an organization, we offer hands-on guidance and oversight.
At Gemsbok Partners, our ethos is built around providing our clients with timely, practical, and cost-effective services that are tailored to their unique needs. We are focused on delivering results, responding quickly to client requests, and being engaged at every stage of the process. We understand that in this fast-paced environment, it is important to focus on solutions, not problems. We do not waste time on irrelevant issues or seek to upsell additional services that are unnecessary for your situation. Our job is to make your job easier, ensuring a smooth and efficient process. Our founders and our slate of available independent directors have been on the front lines of numerous high-stakes and cutting-edge transactions. We know the pressures and challenges that deal teams face. We work diligently to make our involvement in your businesses and transactions as seamless and stress-free as possible.
