We represent our clients on the buy-side or on the sell-side of mergers and acquisitions. In addition, we have represented independent members of the Board of Directors, other professionals and service providers in extremely complex and/or hostile acquisition transactions.

On either side, we work closely with senior management, the investment bankers and the accountants to structure the transaction from a legal, accounting, tax and valuation standpoint to maximize the value to the client.

We actively participate in the negotiation and drafting of the transaction documentation, present and advise on the legal issues to the Board of Directors for their consideration, assist in the preparation of proxy or other shareholder consent materials, advise on shareholder consent issues, assist in the preparation of antitrust or other regulatory filings, attend meetings with regulators and work to resolve regulatory issues, advise on tax, management compensation and employee benefit matters, provide legal support for the transaction in the form of a legal opinion, review press releases for regulatory compliance and otherwise facilitate the closing of the acquisition.
