PRACTICE

Mergers and Acquisitions

Overview

Throughout their careers, partners in the Pierson Ferdinand Mergers and Acquisitions Team have skillfully represented international corporations in some of the world’s most significant transactions. We are equally committed to serving clients of all sizes, including those with transactions of considerable strategic importance, even when they may not involve vast monetary value. Clients turn to us when their transactions demand innovative solutions due to their strategic significance, regulatory intricacies, or global reach.

  • Full Spectrum of Business Transactions

    Like traditional large law firms, we regularly assist clients in the full spectrum of business transactions and related company matters, a large portion of which involves mergers and acquisitions, capital markets, banking and credit, employment, regulatory, corporate governance and board advisory, intellectual property, and financial restructuring and reorganization, among others.

  • Leveraging Technology

    Our Corporate team leverages cutting edge technology in all aspects of practice and our diverse all-partner teams focus on what matters most to our clients and stakeholders, delivering outcomes through shared values of strength, diversity, and collaboration.

  • Forging Close Partnerships

    We believe in forging close partnerships with our clients to better understand their business operations, enabling us to provide more effective counsel and to deliver exceptional value during pivotal moments that often shape profoundly the trajectory and success of our clients’ businesses.

  • Effective Low-Leverage Platform

    Our unique low-leverage platform is not only more cost-effective, it allows us to focus on fewer, targeted engagements than our peers at traditional, elite law firms. This model allows us to get closer to our clients and to know their businesses, preferences, and cadence, and to ultimately meet our clients where they are.

Capabilities

With a commitment to sound judgment, a deep understanding of commercial dynamics, and an unwavering dedication to exceptional client service, our team handles a diverse range of strategic and private equity mergers and acquisitions, as well as commercial transactions. Our clients in the realm of mergers and acquisitions benefit from the seamless collaboration of Pierson Ferdinand’s tax, executive compensation, and regulatory Teams. This includes vital areas such as securities regulation, banking and finance, antitrust, competition, CFIUS matters, data privacy, anti-corruption, and FCPA advice.

We believe in the power of collaboration, and our partners from various disciplines and locations within the firm work cohesively with each other, the client, and, when necessary, with investment bankers, accountants, proxy solicitors, and other advisors. This collaborative approach equips our Mergers and Acquisition Team with the versatility to execute any transaction, regardless of industry, economic climate, or geographic location.
