Our mergers and acquisitions practice encompasses essentially every form of corporate transaction, including mergers, purchases and sales of assets, purchase and sales of securities, and change of control events such as tender offers and proxy con- tests. Transactions are both domestic and cross-border. We rep- resent purchasers, sellers, lenders and financial advisors. Our M&A transactions cover taxes, real estate, corporate, employee benefits, labor, and financing expertise, not only at the due diligence stage, but also the agreement and closing stages of these transactions.
We provide extensive expertise in strategic joint ventures, often cross-border in nature. We handle entire joint venture endeavors from inception to final agreement, with special emphasis on structure of the venture entity, tax planning and corporate governance between or among the partners. We have formulated joint ventures in a number of industries.
