Members of the Leatherwood Corporate and Business Transactions group work as an outside business partner with each of our clients. As a result, we’ve built relationships that have endured for decades, acting as an outside general counsel, strategic business advisor, and one-stop legal resource for businesses of all types and sizes. We take a proactive approach in helping our clients solve day-to-day problems and developing strategies for future growth or dispositions.
At Leatherwood, we know the fundamental measure of a good client relationship is how little our clients worry about legal matters and how much they focus on the success of their business. For large public and private clients, as well as small private and closely-held family companies, our business lawyers act as a primary contact, handling day-to-day legal matters and referring clients to other Leatherwood lawyers with skills in particular disciplines as needed.
Leatherwood’s business lawyers give advice on a variety of issues including:
Business ownership, control and management issues such as entity formation, tax planning, and executive compensation
Acquisitions and reorganizations
Stock and asset sales
Mergers, leveraged buy-outs, and going-private transactions
Debt and equity finance
International transactions
Work visas and permits from the Immigration and Naturalization Service
