Life Sciences: Corporate/Commercial

Sidley’s California Life Sciences practice stands apart because we leverage our dominant global life sciences practice to offer California biotech and life sciences companies all the key practice areas that are relevant to their businesses.  In addition, as California life sciences companies look to scale and launch their products internationally, they require a firm like Sidley that can provide a complete solution for all their legal needs, including regulatory and compliance.  

Our practice occupies a unique space in the legal marketplace. Sidley is recognized as a leader in both regulatory and transactional work. This provides tangible benefit to our clients.  We review and comment on client press releases, prospectuses and other SEC filings, and presentations from an integrated perspective reflecting securities law and regulatory comments. We are able to handle critical intellectual property licensing transactions and are involved in some of the most significant IP litigation.  A global law firm with 20 offices around the world, Sidley can take on the most complex inter-jurisdictional life science matters. Sidley offers our clients a full-service approach to their issues from capital market transactions, to regulatory needs, to intellectual property challenges that may arise around the world. We are the firm that can serve our clients at all stages of the product life cycle as their needs expand in complexity and geographic scope.
