Transactions (Mergers and Acquisitions)
Our attorneys are highly skilled in the art of the deal. In fact, our experienced attorneys have executed hundreds of acquisitions and divestitures. We have honed our skills in every stage of the process -- crafting the transaction, conducting due diligence, securing financing, negotiating terms, and documenting the result. We typically handle transactions in the $5 million to $250 million range, involving privately-held companies, private equity firms and divisions of public companies. Our transaction team is supported by legal experts in other specialties, such as tax, labor and employment, employee benefits, environmental law, real estate, and intellectual property.
Our business attorneys counsel clients who are selling, acquiring, reorganizing, or merging businesses by bringing both legal and business experience to the transaction. We assist clients in executing all aspects of complex merger and acquisition activities, including preparing for the transaction, structuring the transaction, performing the necessary due diligence, securing the necessary financing, negotiating the terms of the deal, and documenting the transaction. Our experience also includes negotiation of contracts with investment bankers and advisors, protection of confidential information and dealing with antitrust concerns.
Our firm’s merger and acquisition clients include public and private companies, buyout funds, venture funds, and individual entrepreneurs. Our business restructuring attorneys are also experienced in transactions involving financially troubled companies, including acquisitions and dispositions in bankruptcy and secured party sales.
