Our firm has extensive experience in leading complex and non-standard mergers and acquisitions. We are continuously involved in M&A transactions, representing both sell-side and buy-side companies and their interests.
Our M&A toolkit includes:
- Leading legal due diligence, with the aim of exposing existing legal risks and developing optimal deal structures;
- Legal support for sell-side and buy-side parties, including preparation and analysis of deal documentation, participation in negotiations on behalf of sell or buy-side parties, organizing and tracking work processes in the data room;
- Legal support in tenders;
- Deal structuring for mergers and acquisitions;
- Guidance through standard procedures after the completion of deals;
- Business restructuring after the completion of deals with the aim of removing or minimizing existing legal risks.
Salomon Partners has successfully completed work on six corporate M&A transactions, the largest of which was valued at over 100 m USD and the others each valued at over $5 m USD.
We are also engaged in questions of structuring and restructuring existing businesses. A primary goal in such projects is the creation of corporate business structures that permit the effective operation of a group of companies, minimizing risks inherent in given businesses and reliably protecting the property rights of groups within the corporate asset structure. Corporate structuring projects typically demand deep immersion into the internal corporate life of the client, requiring many hours of attentive dialogue with top-management, lawyers and other employees.
In our short history, Salomon Partners has already been engaged in three corporate restructuring projects involving large holdings. Currently, we are engaged in making the reorganization procedures developed by our lawyers in their practice available to our clients.
