    Practice Areas

    Corporate & FinanceMergers, Acquisitions, and Corporate Transactions Private Equity & Investment Funds

    /My focus

    General Corporate—M&A and Private Equity

    I represent public and private companies, as well as private equity clients, in a variety of matters, including mergers, acquisitions, venture financing, public securities offerings, corporate restructurings, and other complex commercial transactions. Working with companies in a variety of industries, including media; name, image and likeness (NIL); food and beverage; healthcare; and manufacturing, I provide strategically drafted agreements, early risk detection, and due diligence in middle- and upper-market M&A transactions.

    /Looking ahead

    As markets stabilize and interest rates likely decline in the coming year, we should see a spike in transaction volume among nontraditional investors.
