We offer comprehensive counsel and representation to companies concerning the regulatory landscape and best practice for corporate governance matters.
Mergers and Acquisitions
Our lawyers are aligned to industry sectors. We understand the internal and external pressures that our clients face throughout a transaction and the industry-specific issues critical to the success of a deal. We guide our clients through every stage of a deal-from due diligence and structuring, to negotiation and preparation of deal documents, to post-transaction transition and post-merger integration.
Sustainability and Environmental, Social and Governance
Our firm is committed to making businesses better by helping clients and communities transition to and thrive in a more sustainable future. We understand the unique challenges and needs of each sector and deliver seamless global solutions that help our clients around the world.
Enhancing sustainable strategies, performance and reporting and navigating the transition to a low-carbon economy must be driven by a set of clearly defined values and corporate purpose. Embedding a culture of sustainability and accountability will better equip businesses, investors, policy-makers and other stakeholders to confront the complex strategic, legal, financial and operational sustainability opportunities and change.
We view sustainability as the ability of businesses and other stakeholders to create value over the long term in alignment with the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) topics relevant to their sector and business.
Ethics and innovation
With businesses collecting more data, their understanding of consumers, employees and supply chains is changing. Issues related to business ethics, data management, privacy concerns, consumer litigation risks, and regulatory compliance are now all in play. High-profile data breaches in the industry have also heightened concerns not just about the security of data but the applications from it.
Technology companies need to build the trust of stakeholders – for example, by improving data governance through audit processes to assure the integrity of data and by increasing accountability and transparency in use of consumer data.
