Mergers and Acquisitions

Our team of corporate lawyers provides full-service representation in all aspects of mergers and acquisitions, spinoffs, divestitures, and domestic and cross-border corporate reorganizations.

Leaders

Global Overview

As deal counsel for high-value, high-profile M&A transactions, our corporate lawyers serve as the primary point of contact for legal advisors from across our global network and provide coordinated management and delivery of our suite of comprehensive, in-depth legal services. In addition to working seamlessly with senior client executives in all relevant jurisdictions, our lead lawyers also collaborate, when circumstances dictate, with Ally Law’s member-firm lawyers in specialist practices such as antitrust, environmental law, healthcare, labor and employment, government contracts, intellectual property, information technology and taxation.

Services

Working with lawyers from across member firms and jurisdictions, we provide coordinated, cost-effective counsel and customized, strategic services. Ally Law is ready to assist clients with all types of M&A and related transactions, including leveraged and management buyouts, distressed acquisitions, joint ventures, investments, recapitalizations, restructurings and reorganizations, and spinoffs and divestitures.

We routinely conduct comprehensive due diligence, provide advice with respect to the responsibilities of board of directors, advisory boards and special committees, prepare transaction documentation, and pursue relevant governmental approvals, including responding to antitrust and foreign-assets issues.

The Ally Law Advantage

Our member firms maintain offices in hundreds of key commercial centers worldwide. Many of our network delegates and individual lawyers are active participants in leading domestic and international industry groups and associations. This involvement ensures that we are at the forefront of legal developments and trends wherever and whenever they arise.

Together, we deliver comprehensive, cross-jurisdictional legal counsel on a wide array of issues that arise at every step of the transaction process. We have particular experience advising clients in complex multijurisdictional deals, taking advantage of our network approach to efficiently and seamlessly handle global deals. We quickly develop an in-depth understanding of our client’s objectives, then analyze the regulatory and competitive landscape within the client’s industry, after which we develop and execute legal and business strategies that can help protect client interests while maximizing their return on investment.

Our Clients

We advise a diverse clientele and have experience representing parties on all sides of the negotiating table, including sellers, buyers, financial investors and strategic partners. Our clients include domestic and multinational, privately held and publicly traded companies, as well as private equity funds, hedge funds and other organizations. With deep experience in a variety of industries — including real estate, healthcare, technology, retail, and sports and leisure — we help clients obtain the legal counsel and professional advisory services they need to close the deal.
