Diverse clients, comprehensive service
We routinely handle deals of all sizes, representing the interests of publicly traded corporations, closely held and family-owned businesses, private equity firms, investment bankers and other transaction participants. We have advised clients in every aspect of transactions, including mergers, acquisitions, equity financings and stock-redemption matters. We also have deep experience in divestitures, going-private transactions, leveraged and management buyouts, joint ventures and strategic alliances, tender and exchange offers, spin-offs, rollups, recapitalizations, reorganizations and restructurings.
Industry breadth
A merger, acquisition or divestiture transaction is often a pivotal event in the life of a business. No deal occurs in a vacuum. Each is different in its own and often varied ways. Our lawyers make a determined effort to understand our clients, their business, their competitive and regulatory pressures, their transactional objectives, and to work with the client as a cohesive and collaborative team.
