Mergers & Acquisitions

Our M&A team advises acquirers, sellers, boards, and investors in domestic and cross-border transactions, including stock and asset purchases, mergers, joint ventures, and strategic investments. We manage deal structuring, diligence, negotiation, execution, and post-closing integration with rigor and efficiency.
FAQs: Q: What is the difference between a stock sale and an asset sale? A: In a stock sale, the buyer acquires ownership of the entity itself. In an asset sale, the buyer purchases selected business assets, often avoiding liabilities. Q: When should legal counsel be engaged in a transaction? A: Early. We add the most value when engaged at the term sheet or diligence stage to identify risks and shape favorable deal terms.
