Corporate Finance and Transactions
As counsel to large public institutions and private corporations, we are at ease with complex transactions involving the capitalization, privatization, divestiture, or other dispositions and restructurings of businesses and business assets. These undertakings obviously require careful advance planning to develop alternative legal and business structures designed to accomplish strategic, commercial, financial, and legal objectives, and we are very well-suited to advise our clients on the available options and their consequences given our experience internationally and in the U.S. with such matters.
