SGR's Mergers and Acquisitions Practice attorneys have extensive experience representing private and public companies in a wide range of domestic and cross-border transactions, including mergers, acquisitions and divestitures, as well as equity and debt financings, leveraged buyouts, joint ventures, and going-private transactions.
We regularly advise clients across a broad range of industries, including business services, consumer products, retailing, distribution and logistics, energy, financial services, franchising, healthcare, hospitality, manufacturing and industrial supply, chemicals, food service, software, technology, telecommunications, and transportation.
With assistance from our focused practice areas, including our antitrust, employment, tax, real estate, intellectual property, environmental and regulatory practitioners, we assist our clients in structuring, negotiating and executing transactions in a diligent, pragmatic and cost-efficient manner.
We are well-versed in helping smaller and mid-sized companies, which may not regularly use financial, transactional and legal resources customarily employed by larger businesses, as they navigate M&A transactions. Our lawyers are equally experienced in assisting in-house counsel with their transactional needs as they are in representing private equity and other investors in buy-side and sell-side deals.
