As counsel to capital market participants, both domestic and abroad, in all facets of M&A transactions, we have a deep understanding of the objectives of each of the participants in an M&A transaction and what it takes to manage large complex transactions. We are able to capitalize on this understanding to ensure that our clients receive sophisticated, innovative and, above all, value-added tactical and legal advice. The size and breadth of our practice and our national and international presence ensures that we are able to respond quickly and effectively to any M&A transaction, regardless of timing, size, scope or complexity.

We advise clients involved in all aspects of a transaction, including acquirers, targets, boards and their special committees, lenders, financial advisors, investors and key shareholders. We provide a focused, integrated approach, drawing on our depth and expertise in other areas, such as tax, competition, labour and employment, pensions, banking, intellectual property, mining, environment and litigation. We are particularly well known for our private equity work and for our expertise in providing strategic advice to the board and special committees to the board.
