Private M&A
At the leading edge of private M&A.
We’re used to dealing with complex structures – it’s what we’re good at.
We have experienced lawyers across practice areas worldwide who can help you navigate tax structuring, pensions issues, regulatory hurdles, litigation risk – and anything else that comes up in an M&A context.
Buyers: the price you offer is going to be an important factor – but it’s not everything.
Sellers: look carefully at the rest of the package – things such as conditionality, potential ongoing liabilities, transitional arrangements, relationships with management and deal certainty.
Because we work for buyers and sellers alike, we know how best to approach writing or commenting on the legal documents in any particular context. Whether it’s a light touch or something more aggressive, we can advise you.
We also know what market practice is in key jurisdictions around the world, so you’ll always be at the leading edge of the market.
