We have represented, as principal counsel, both acquiring and selling companies in transactions throughout the entire United States. These transactions have included:
- Acquisitions of companies by the purchase of equity or assets;
- Leveraged buyouts by both management and professional buyout groups involving complex financing arrangements and specialized structures such as ESOPs;
- Use of partnership, LLC, LLP and joint venture structures to maximize flexibility and tax benefits.
Our involvement in these transactions has generally also included counseling in the structural stages with respect to environmental, labor, tax, securities and acquisition financing matters. As part of our representation, we review all aspects of a company's business and operations in order to advise our clients with respect to legal and business issues involved in the transaction.
