Professional services firms must consider the myriad of legal issues that may arise as they become more complex. We regularly represent consulting firms, law firms, human resource agencies, credit reporting agencies, brokerage firms, accounting firms, money management firms and software development companies. We have experience in a broad range of business and finance transactions including securities offerings, outsourcing and the negotiation of credit facilities. The firm’s business and finance attorneys work closely with the employee benefits, intellectual property and tax teams on multiple business transactions including, corporate spin-offs, acquisitions and strategic alliances.

In addition, we have experience with tax and employee benefits planning and counseling, patent planning, counseling, prosecution and litigation, and trademark counseling and litigation. While we try to help companies avoid litigation, when necessary we have experience with complex business litigation, bankruptcy, antitrust matters and white collar crime and special investigations.

The firm also offers broad experience in the related practice areas of Labor & Employment, Insurance Coverage, and Construction.
