Corporate/M&A & Private Equity

Our Pennsylvania Corporate M&A/Private Equity/Securities attorneys have had a productive year, transactions that include traditional acquisitions and divestitures, mergers, joint ventures, private and public securities offerings, and corporate reorganizations.

Our Philadelphia team’s clients primarily fall into the following categories:

1. Large, public companies that grow their businesses through M&A transactions and securities offerings

2. Private equity firms

3. Smaller public and private companies seeking to grow their businesses through outside investors and licensing transactions

4. Emerging companies. We formalized our experience with emerging companies in 2016 and launched both our Emerging Growth and Venture Capital Group as well as our innovative programs: Project Sing and Ballard Academy for Student Entrepreneurs (BASE), featured in Forbes magazine.

The variety of our client base means that we have a constant, varied, and exciting deal flow. Our clients' diverse businesses have allowed us to develop broad industry experience, including in the aerospace, chemicals, e-commerce, medical device, biotechnology, retail, and energy industries. Our transactions are both national and cross-border in nature. We take great pride in our client relationships, many of which go back more than 20 years.
