We have hundreds of attorneys focused on M&A transactions in our 22 U.S. offices spread across the country, and we have extensive experience in the manufacturing, health care and life sciences, innovative technology, and energy sectors. We handle thousands of transactions each year, and we approach each project thinking through how it impacts all aspects of your business, including employees, benefits, tax, intellectual property, antitrust, and regulatory impacts. By anticipating these issues early on, we help maximize value and minimize risks.
