Scrivani was most recently a partner at international lawfirm Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison. Scrivani advises private equity firms and public and private clients on leveragedbuyouts and other private equity transactions, publiccompany acquisitions, sales and divestitures and mergers of equals.
