Private Placements and Public Offerings

Our firm represent businesses ranging from emerging start-ups looking for seed capital to billion-dollar corporations raising capital through public offerings. Our business and securities lawyers have extensive experience guiding clients through private placements, venture capital financings and public offerings. We have worked on financings with numerous regional and national investment banking firms and underwriters.

We offer emerging growth companies the expertise and creativity required to obtain seed capital while setting the stage for subsequent rounds of financing. We understand the need to anticipate our clients' future capital requirements by helping them build capital structures suitable for subsequent financings. Our experience in working with investment banking firms and venture capital groups allows us to help clients structure financings with a view toward success over the long-term.

Many business owners begin an enterprise with a vision of ultimately "going public," only to realize that remaining privately held, or selling out to a strategic or financial buyer, is a better result. We counsel our clients through each growth cycle, helping them determine and achieve their objectives. Our securities lawyers have completed public offerings of debt and equity securities with proceeds ranging from less than $50 million to several hundred million dollars. Our lawyers have broad and diverse experience and a thorough knowledge of Nasdaq and NYSE listing standards and processes.
