Financings / Strategic Partnerships
Our lawyers have represented numerous clients in procuring working capital lines of credit and term loans from traditional sources such as banks, including SBA guaranteed programs. We also serve our clients' needs in raising debt and equity financing through private exempt transactions under the Securities Act of 1933 and Reg. D offerings. On many occasions we negotiate joint venture and strategic partnership agreements enabling our clients to build synergistic relationships to exploit market opportunities.
