We have considerable experience in nearly every form of transaction, including:

  • Stock and asset acquisitions
  • Mergers
  • Friendly and hostile corporate takeovers, with notable experience involving the Ohio anti-takeover statutes
  • Divestitures and corporate spin-offs
  • Leveraged recapitalizations
  • Venture capital and private equity investments
  • M&A related restructurings
  • Joint ventures and strategic alliances
  • Going-private transactions
  • Public/private partnerships

We represent our clients in all phases of a transaction, from the structuring and planning through the due diligence, negotiation, execution and implementation of a transaction.  Our M&A attorneys are experienced in leading a transaction and efficiently completing the deal.  Recognizing that each transaction presents unique issues and challenges, our M&A team includes attorneys with experience in tax (including federal, state and local), litigation, employee benefits, labor and employment, environmental, finance, real estate, antitrust, securities, information technology and cybersecurity, intellectual property, immigration, corporate governance and compliance, bankruptcy, and regulatory aspects of a transaction.  We also have considerable experience coordinating with other law firms in a co-counsel or local counsel capacity, especially as it relates to Ohio’s complex anti-takeover statutes.
