Holland & Hart attorneys have significant experience representing businesses in complex commercial and corporate transactions. In 2011 and 2012, Corporate Board Member magazine recognized Holland & Hart as the top corporate law firm in Denver based on a survey of corporate directors and in-house counsel. Throughout our network of offices, we have lawyers with the knowledge, experience, and local contacts necessary to handle virtually any type and size of transaction.
Our attorneys have experience representing publicly traded acquirers and target companies in both friendly and unsolicited acquisitions. These transactions involve negotiated or unsolicited tender offers, mergers involving an exchange of securities, minority investments, leveraged buyouts, or proxy contests.
Our private company transaction practice involves representation of acquiring and target companies, including buyers of assets, subsidiaries, or other privately held businesses; companies seeking to divest unwanted subsidiaries, divisions, or assets; and companies engaging in various types of joint ventures. Many of the private acquisitions involve a "bid" process or an "auction" process.
In public and private acquisitions, our firm regularly represents both U.S. and non-U.S. acquirers, private equity funds, and target companies. When deals involve loan negotiations, our lawyers help clients identify financial sponsors and structure loan terms favorably based on the ultimate goals of a transaction.
Thanks to Holland & Hart's deep bench of attorneys and broad range of practice areas, we can involve our colleagues in the fields of finance, securities, tax, real estate, intellectual property, natural resources, antitrust, litigation, environmental, employee benefits, and more as needs arise. When appropriate in both domestic and international transactions, we involve our local counsel affiliates.
