Joint Ventures and Strategic Alliances
Overview
Joint ventures and strategic alliances are complex, long-term arrangements that are susceptible to unforeseen turns down the road.
We assist our clients in all phases of joint ventures and strategic alliances, from the initial expression of interest through closing. At the outset, we help to identify appropriate transaction structures, define the joint venture's mission, and contextualize the new venture within our clients’ and their partners' other ongoing activities. We aim to provide our clients with a voice in the joint venture’s ongoing operation, protection for their ownership interests, and confidence in the integration of their corporate initiatives, policies, and culture. To avoid unexpected future conflicts between transaction participants, from the start, we advise clients on potential exit and deadlock resolution procedures and, later on and when necessary, we assist in unwinding the joint venture.
