Mergers & Acquisitions

Our attorneys have extensive experience in the field of mergers and acquisitions, including transactions as large as the merger of a private company into a public company and as small as the private sale of a business division.

Having participated in so many varied transactions, our attorneys can provide detailed advice as to how best to structure a change-of-control transaction, whether your company is the buyer of seller, surviving corporation or the corporation being absorbed. We work extensively with investment bankers, business brokerages, and valuation experts to maximize your company’s value.

Our experience in the mergers and acquisitions field includes:

• Asset sales
• Stock purchases
• Mergers with both public and private companies
• Leveraged buy-outs
• Supermajority voting provisions and the adoption of poison pills
• Shareholder agreements and other specific by law articles of incorporation provisions
• Proxy contests, hostile or friendly
