Private equity is central to the identity of the firm, and many of our lawyers are recognised leaders in their fields of expertise.
We regularly advise investors and companies in connection with private equity and venture capital investments and exits (such as, LBOs, MBOs, P2Ps and venture capital investments) and work with clients both at the buyout and growth stages.
We offer a full range of services for private equity and venture capital transactions, including tax and acquisition structuring and financing, management incentives, competition law analysis and filings. Our team is experienced in solving critical disputes between shareholders or investors and management.
B&K lawyers work closely with portfolio companies, assisting them with legal matters ranging from general corporate, employment and tax advice, to matters involving, for example, add-on acquisitions and market expansion and commercialisation of a business plan.
For companies at the growth stage, we focus on building the strengths, ensuring appropriate legal support for products and services, building the corporate governance and intellectual property policies and ensuring general legal compliance – always with the focus on value creation and a successful exit strategy.
Our clients include domestic and international PE and VC investors and funds, public and private companies, financial institutions and government and municipal agencies and incubators.
