Corporate Counseling
Practices MainThe firm's corporate counseling group consists of a number of highly regarded corporation law specialists skilled in finding creative solutions to corporation law issues that both accomplish the client's goal and reduce the risk of liability from any ensuing challenge. Several of the partners in the corporate counseling group are leading lawyers listed in Chambers USA. In addition, three members of our corporate counseling group serve on the governing council of the Corporation Law Section of the Delaware State Bar Association, the source of virtually all annual revisions to the Delaware General Corporation Law (DGCL).
Our attorneys are routinely retained to advise boards of directors, management and significant stockholders of Delaware corporations with respect to their fiduciary obligations under Delaware law, as well as the negotiation, structuring and effectuation of fundamental corporate transactions such as mergers, asset sales, recapitalizations, and appropriate responses to solicited and unsolicited acquisition proposals. In many of these activities, our corporate counseling group works closely with our corporate litigators to ensure that the corporation and its directors and officers understand and, therefore, can anticipate and reduce the litigation risks inherent in today’s corporate environment.
