Navigating complex transactions with precision, innovation, and client-focused solutions

Buying or selling a business is a complex and high-stakes process, requiring careful planning, strategic negotiation, and a thorough understanding of regulations. Clients often face critical questions: How can we structure this deal to maximize value? What are the risks? How do we ensure the transaction closes smoothly and on time?

We understand these concerns and are committed to providing clear, actionable guidance at every stage of the transaction. We advise public and private companies and firms in connection with all types of mergers and acquisitions transactions, including public company transactions, private company transactions, private equity investments, going private transactions, acquisitions and dispositions of subsidiaries, divisions and other assets, and joint ventures.

Clients trust us to handle their most critical and sophisticated transactions, often involving the largest law firms in the country. We work with organizations of all sizes, helping them navigate both negotiated and unsolicited or hostile transactions efficiently and effectively. Our clients are from sectors including food and agriculture, apparel, banking, building supply, communications, education, health care, insurance, manufacturing, packaging, professional services, real estate, retail and wholesale distribution, technology, transportation, utilities, and numerous other industries.

collaborative, forward-thinking advice

We routinely advise buyers and sellers in determining the most beneficial form and structure of a transaction, negotiating and documenting the transaction, and meeting the conditions and contingencies to closing as efficiently as possible. Our thorough knowledge of the regulatory aspects inherent in all types of corporate matters allows us to determine the most appropriate method to expedite the desired corporate action. We also collaborate closely with other attorneys in our firm who practice in tax, antitrust, cybersecurity, intellectual property, employee benefits, labor and employment, government contracts, banking and commercial finance, real estate and environmental law to provide our clients with comprehensive and innovative advice.

In addition, we have represented a number of clients in other types of sophisticated transactions, including spin-offs, leveraged ESOP or management-led buyouts, unsolicited and hostile takeovers and other contested matters. We also regularly represent financial advisors, management teams, and other participants in public and private transactions of various types.

Our mergers and acquisitions practice is bolstered by our broad experience in corporate governance matters. We routinely counsel boards of directors and executive officers regarding significant transactions, takeover readiness, disclosure issues, Sarbanes-Oxley matters and internal investigations.
