01.

Venture and growth companies

We advise founders and leadership teams from formation through scale. Our work focuses on structure, incentives, governance, and transactions that materially affect control, liability, and long-term value.

This includes financing, founder alignment, strategic partnerships, and risk planning before problems become expensive.

02.

Mergers and strategic transactions

We advise on acquisitions, divestitures, and complex strategic transactions. Our approach emphasizes deal structure, downside protection, and execution discipline. We focus on how deals operate post-closing, including risk allocation, governance, and dispute exposure, not just how they read on paper.

03.

Executive and board advisory

We work with executives and boards on governance, compensation, transitions, disputes, and high-stakes decision making.

This is candid advice for situations where the answer is not obvious and the consequences are real.

04.

Corporate governance and risk

We help companies identify governance gaps, regulatory exposure, and structural risk before those issues surface publicly.

The goal is resilience, not reaction

05.

Class and Mass Tort Litigation

We represent plaintiffs and stakeholders in complex class and mass tort matters involving technology platforms, data practices, labor systems, and systemic misconduct. Matters are evaluated using a disciplined legal and economic framework informed by real-world operating experience and litigation risk.

Built for decisions that matter.

Most legal advice is technically correct and practically late.
We focus on moments where timing, structure, and judgment change outcomes.

If timing matters, talk to us early.

Early engagement creates more options, clearer tradeoffs, and better outcomes when decisions carry lasting consequences.
