About
Provided by Bennett Jones LLP
We help clients complete complex M&A deals with strategic, practical counsel that manages risk, protects value and achieves business objectives.
Getting the deal done in a way that satisfies your desired business outcomes is our first priority. Clients benefit from our focus on efficient identification of issues that will matter, with no wasted time on those that will not. We account for your risk appetite and the commercial realities likely to apply after closing to guide negotiation strategy and structuring.
Our clients include many Canadian and global Fortune 500 companies operating in local, national or international markets, as well as private equity funds, institutional investors and other capital pools investing and operating in Canada. Whether quarterbacking the deal, or providing Canadian counsel support, we coordinate seamlessly with counsel, financial advisors and regulators around the world. We also have particular expertise advising boards and special committees in both friendly and contested transactions, leveraging the expertise of our Shareholder Activism & Critical Situations team.
Our public and private M&A practice spans all industries, and particularly those that drive the Canadian economy, such as energy, oil and gas and renewables, mining, consumer products, technology, utilities, agribusiness, financial services and cannabis, among others.
