With experience spanning deal values from $10 million to over $1 billion, we bring sophisticated legal expertise, commercial acumen, and strategic insight to every M&A transaction.
Cross-Border Acquisitions
Strategic counsel on international acquisitions involving multiple jurisdictions, complex regulatory frameworks, and cross-border tax considerations. We coordinate global deal teams, navigate foreign investment approvals, manage multi-jurisdictional due diligence, and structure tax-efficient transactions that maximize value while minimizing risk. Our cross-border M&A experience spans Asia-US, Asia-Europe, Asia-Middle East, and intra-Asia transactions.
Public M&A
Comprehensive advice on public company acquisitions, mergers of equals, takeover offers, schemes of arrangement, and going-private transactions. We guide clients through stock exchange requirements, securities law compliance, shareholder approvals, regulatory filings, and disclosure obligations. Our public M&A practice includes both friendly negotiations and contested situations requiring sophisticated defense strategies.
Private Equity M&A
Advising private equity funds, growth equity investors, and venture capital firms on platform acquisitions, add-on transactions, bolt-on deals, leveraged buyouts, management buyouts, growth investments, and portfolio exits. We understand the unique dynamics of sponsor-backed transactions, including auction processes, competitive bidding, financing contingencies, and value maximization strategies.
Strategic M&A
Representing strategic buyers and sellers in transformative acquisitions, mergers, consolidations, and industry roll-ups. We advise on strategic rationale, synergy realization, integration planning, cultural alignment, and long-term value creation. Our strategic M&A practice includes horizontal acquisitions, vertical integrations, market expansion deals, and technology acquisitions that drive competitive advantage.
Divestitures & Carve-Outs
Comprehensive support for corporate divestitures, business unit sales, asset carve-outs, spin-offs, and portfolio rationalization. We manage complex separation issues including shared services, transition services agreements, employee transfers, intellectual property allocation, and ongoing commercial relationships. Our divestiture practice ensures clean exits while preserving value and minimizing post-closing disputes.
Joint Ventures & Strategic Alliances
Structuring and negotiating joint ventures, strategic partnerships, consortium arrangements, and collaborative ventures across industries and geographies. We advise on governance structures, decision-making mechanisms, profit sharing, exit rights, deadlock resolution, and alignment of partner interests. Our JV practice includes both greenfield ventures and acquisition-based partnerships.
