My focus

Mergers and Acquisitions

Throughout my career, I have advised a wide range of M&A clients, both strategic and financial, in acquisitions and divestitures that they are considering, with purchase prices ranging from very modest valuations to billions of dollars. In a recent transaction, I helped our public-company client carve-out and sell a business line to a private equity-backed acquirer for $900 million. I represent clients in a variety of industries, with a particular emphasis on the food and beverage, behavioral health, manufacturing, medical devices, and security services verticals. In each transaction, I manage my NP team from the beginning of the deal to the closing, while always focusing on my clients’ business objectives. Private Equity and Family OfficeI represent private equity investors and family office clients in a variety of transactions, including managing corporate matters and exit and investment transactions. I also advise investors on the emerging opportunities created by name, image, and likeness (NIL) funding. General Corporate Work

On an ongoing basis, I serve as outside general counsel for early- to late-stage companies, which includes assisting with corporate formation and governance items, executive and incentive compensation, commercial agreements, and other ongoing general corporate matters.

Looking ahead

I expect to see an increase in transformational mergers and acquisitions. As the economy continues to diversify, thanks to the influence of technology, more companies are looking to expand their reach. Transformational mergers and acquisitions have the potential to reshape industry landscapes, disrupt conventional business practices, and open up access to new markets previously inaccessible to a company.
