Corporate & Transactional

The broad spectrum of corporate law plays a substantial role in our firm’s practice. The breadth of our legal expertise, superior work product, client responsiveness and the resources of our multiple practice disciplines allow us to provide the quality of service that our clients expect and deserve.

Startups

Our attorneys offer years of experience and a guiding hand to entrepreneurs desiring to make their dreams into a business reality. We can assist during all stages of a new emerging company from selection of the appropriate entity type, registration and protection of the company’s intellectual property assets, assisting with capital raising, whether that be through private placements or traditional financing, tax planning, developing contract templates and negotiating with customers and vendors. We have the team in place to support the formation and growth of your new business venture.

Venture Capital and Private Equity

We counsel our clients on forming venture capital funds, raising capital, and documenting and structuring investments in portfolio companies. We have significant experience in the legal fields necessary to provide these services, including tax, securities, ERISA, and pass-through entities, such as limited partnerships and limited liability companies. We also assist our clients in evaluating and documenting potential investments through the help of our securities lawyers, as well as specialized advice from our intellectual property, labor and employment, litigation, and real estate attorneys.

International Business Transactions

Today, there is a greater need than ever before to look outside our national borders for markets. Many businesses are finding foreign markets for the first time, while others are expanding and taking more aggressive equity positions abroad. We continue to grow with our clients and work hard with the help of our contacts around the world to provide the information and legal assistance needed to compete in a global economy. Through our firm’s memberships in Lex Mundi and SGC Legal, we can provide our clients with access to over 200 premier law firms in more than 100 countries across the globe.

*The law firms in Lex Mundi and SCG Legal practice independently and are not in a relationship for the joint practice of law.
