We represent buyers and sellers in mergers and stock and asset purchases and sales, always working to structure the transaction and tailor our approach based on the size of, and risks associated with, the transaction.

Our experience includes a wide range of negotiated and contested transactions including sales and acquisitions of thriving businesses, going-private transactions, work-outs, transactions involving financially distressed companies and representing debtors and purchasers in chapter 11 and other bankruptcy proceedings.  Our M&A Group is equipped to handle matters ranging from complicated hundred million dollar transactions to the sale of a locally owned family business.

We speak the language of business and our primary objective is to maximize and facilitate each client’s business opportunities and growth.  In addition to due diligence and risk analysis, we provide industry-specific guidance to our clients and regularly collaborate with the firm’s other practice groups to ensure an efficient transaction.  To ensure the efficiency of that transaction, our M&A group drafts and negotiates key documents, including purchase and sale agreements, internal owner agreements, intellectual property protection, executive compensation arrangements, disclosure requirements and non-competition covenants.
