Benjamin Hulsey

Benjamin is a corporate advisor and business strategist for a wide variety of privately-held businesses, manufacturers, financial institutions, and nonprofits.

Drawing on his decades of legal experience and his previous work as a CPA in both in-house and agency settings, Benjamin fields questions on a diverse array of corporate contract and transactional issues, and provides the common-sense advice that business leaders and boards need to make a decision or move forward with a transaction.

Benjamin assists clients with general corporate and corporate compliance issues, mergers, and other acquisitions and divestitures. He has represented boards and minority shareholders on both sides of shareholder disputes.

For many years, Benjamin has counseled companies on complex technology transfers, technology licensing, joint ventures, and the creation of single-purpose entities. These transactions have frequently involved software and high-tech manufacturing operations, including silicon wafer and polysilicon manufacturing.

Benjamin also has significant experience representing parties in transactions involving domestic oil and gas operations. He has represented individuals leasing land to oil and gas entities, been involved in exploration and production issues, and negotiated long-term gas supply agreements on behalf of major corporate energy users.

Major financial institutions look to Benjamin for assistance in the purchase and sale of tax credits. He has negotiated such deals for LIHTC, historic tax credits, energy tax credits, and film tax credits for projects and developments across the country.

Benjamin is an active leader in the St. Louis civic community and represents nonprofits and charitable organizations in their organization and tax-exempt status, transactions and major contracts, and day-to-day corporate issues.
