About
Provided by Potter Anderson & Corroon LLP
Due to our national reputation concerning matters of Delaware corporate law, we regularly act as Delaware counsel in both nationally and internationally prominent mergers, acquisitions and divestitures. Our M&A team advises boards of directors, management and significant shareholders with respect to the negotiation, structuring and effectuation of mergers, acquisitions, asset sales, recapitalizations and responses to solicited and unsolicited acquisition proposals. Three members of our M&A team serve on the governing council of the Corporation Law Section of the Delaware State Bar Association, the source of virtually all annual revisions to the Delaware General Corporation Law.
We advise on the full spectrum of alternative entities, including general partnerships, limited partnerships, limited liability partnerships, limited liability limited partnerships, limited liability companies, statutory and common law trusts, and special-purpose corporations. We counsel general partners, managers, trustees, boards and other governing bodies; represent lenders, borrowers and other parties in the formation, utilization, operation and dissolution of every type of alternative entity; advise on fiduciary duties, interested transactions and maintaining independence for special committees and in the context of daily operations and management; counsel on more complex situations, such as proxy and consent solicitations and mergers and acquisitions; and render third-party legal opinions.
