We serve as long-term partners to growth companies, handling the day-to-day legal matters that can otherwise distract founders and executives. Our support covers company formation, governance, equity incentive plans, commercial contracts, compliance, and board/shareholder actions.
We guide small and mid-sized business acquisitions and exits, helping buyers and sellers navigate legal, tax, and financing complexities. From LOI to closing, we manage due diligence, purchase agreements, financing arrangements, and post-closing structures. Our focus is transactions in the $1M–$50M range, where speed, efficiency, and judgment matter most.
We design and implement structures that protect wealth and maximize after-tax outcomes for both companies and business leaders. Our work spans equity compensation planning, tax-efficient M&A and reorganizations, cross-border structuring, and long-term wealth transfer strategies.
