Corporate Transactions
From the formation of entity structures to the execution of contracts, our attorneys implement joint ventures, mergers and acquisitions across many industries. We work with buyers, sellers, financial sources and parties to joint ventures and strategic alliances in structuring transactions, protecting our clients’ interests and identifying capital, partners and advisors.
Our expertise spans a wide range of areas, including contract negotiation and drafting; stockholder and buy-sell agreements; operating agreements; debt and equity securities offerings; mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures; corporate governance; and an array of general business transactions.
Mergers and Acquisitions
Our dedicated legal team provides comprehensive representation to clients throughout every stage of a merger, sale, or acquisition, handling everything from negotiating a letter of intent and conducting due diligence to drafting and negotiating contracts, closing the deal, and addressing post-closing matters such as indemnification, deferred payments, transition services, and earnout provisions, delivering unwavering support to protect and advance our clients’ interests.
Commercial Real Estate
We provide comprehensive support to commercial real estate clients throughout the property acquisition and sale process, skillfully handling purchase and sale agreements, securing necessary development approvals, establishing legal entities, negotiating construction contracts, facilitating construction and permanent financing, and optimizing tax deferral strategies, including 1031 exchanges.
We guide clients through all elements of due diligence and administrative responsibilities in commercial real estate transactions, including conducting in-depth title reviews and title insurance, evaluating property surveys, zoning and land use compliance, and environmental and engineering assessments, and documenting the transaction.
Intellectual Property
Protecting intellectual property is vital, and our experienced attorneys deliver skilled advice on acquiring IP rights, registering US and international trademarks, and overseeing technology transfers and licensing. We help clients by identifying confidential information, and trade secrets; conducting searches and audits; preparing and filing applications; establishing IP safeguards; and facilitating transactions such as purchases, sales, and leases of IP.
Liquor Licensing
We proudly represent New York restaurants, bars, taverns, wineries, breweries, and liquor stores, providing expert guidance on a broad spectrum of issues. Whether you’re launching or acquiring a business, leasing property, obtaining a liquor license, managing operations, or preparing to sell, our skilled attorneys deliver the experience and insight you need. We specialize in navigating the complex licensing and regulatory processes of the New York State Liquor Authority, ensuring your liquor license application is handled efficiently and effectively.
Obtaining a license is only the first step. New York enforces rigorous laws governing the sale and service of beer, wine, and spirits, with strict rules shaping how your business must operate. Our dedicated team helps you master these regulations, reducing the risk of violations and their serious repercussions—fines, citations, or even license loss. From your first day of compliance to long-term success, we’re committed to safeguarding your business.
