Corporate
Whether a company is public or private, foreign or domestic, we can play a role in protecting and expanding our client's business. We help new businesses with corporate structure issues and work with others on negotiating contracts, finance issues and secured loans. With the depth of our experience in finance, securities and litigation, we also understand how to prepare a deal with careful diligence and close it with managed risk.
Our work spans a broad spectrum of issues for public and private companies, entrepreneurs, investors and lenders. We act as counsel on:
- Corporate structure: forming domestic and foreign corporations, limited liability companies, general and limited partnerships and all forms of joint ventures.
- Corporate agreements: negotiating and preparing domestic and international sales and distribution agreements, government bids, proposals and procurement, asset and stock purchase agreements, mergers and other combinations and reorganizations.
- Internal agreements: preparing shareholder, management, employment, consulting, stock option, benefit plan and other internal agreements.
- Compliance: ensuring compliance with securities regulations including registration, disclosure and insider trading regulations, SEC reporting, conduct of meetings and shareholder communications.
- Taxation: offering domestic and international tax advice on formations and transactions, as well as corporate succession and other planning.
- Finance: drafting, reviewing and negotiating all forms of loans and corporate and business financing transactions.
