The attorneys in our emerging businesses practice represent startups and high-growth businesses in raising capital through a variety of means: private placements, angel or venture capital investments, leveraged debt and equity recapitalizations, and mezzanine and commercial bank financing.
We advise our clients on all aspects of the capital raise, including securities compliance and business and tax structuring matters. We also represent a number of capital providers, including angel investors, private equity firms, mezzanine funds, family offices, and commercial banks; this means we understand the risks and rewards inherent to capital raises from every perspective.
