Reed Smith LLP has fortified its global corporate group by appointing Angela Hagerman as a partner in its Houston office. The firm, which made the announcement on June 30, 2025, highlighted Hagerman’s strong expertise in leveraged finance, particularly in debt transactions within the energy, natural resources, and technology sectors.
Hagerman’s portfolio includes representing entities such as private equity funds, commercial borrowers, and financial institutions in complex financings. This includes both domestic and cross-border transactions, a critical asset as Reed Smith navigates the increasingly multidimensional landscape of corporate finance. Her clientele also extends to private credit and alternative capital providers, ensuring she brings a broad spectrum of financial proficiency to her new role.
Before joining Reed Smith, Angela Hagerman was with Kirkland & Ellis, a move that further underscores Reed Smith’s strategic aim to bolster its prowess in areas requiring nuanced financial acumen. By bringing Hagerman on board, the firm intends to enhance its service offerings in key sectors and expand its reach in the corporate law arena.
