Corporate & Transactions
Formation, financing, and sale of privately held companies, with the owner in the room.
We work with founders, family businesses, and investors from the first operating agreement to the day the company is sold. Our deals range from seed rounds to nine-figure acquisitions, and the thing they have in common is that the people who own the business are part of every decision.
We draft the agreements, negotiate with the other side, and explain every clause in plain language before you sign it. If a term cannot be explained in a sentence, we will tell you why it is there or take it out.
Our corporate team also advises on governance, succession, and the disputes between owners that good documents are supposed to prevent.
