Mergers & Acquisitions

There are a variety of reasons why businesses pursue a merger or acquisition as a strategic move for their company. Many use it as a means of growth by way of increased capital, diversification of offerings, or improved market share. Others employ it as part of a partial or full exit plan, either liquidating equity or retaining a minority stake as part of a recapitalization.

Successfully navigating the complexities of a merger or acquisition requires engaging with experienced counsel who takes into consideration the various operational, financial, legal, and tax implications for the buyer and seller. With established legal expertise in business and financial services, our attorneys provide pragmatic, balanced advice through every step of the transaction. We meet with key stakeholders, understand the business goals of all parties, and develop a plan to guide the transaction to a beneficial outcome, all while keeping a relentless focus on our client’s interests.
