Over the years we have assisted countless clients in acquiring or divesting stock or assets; in merging businesses into others; and in establishing and governing joint ventures. In connection with these deals, we help our clients comply with the filing and review requirements under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, and with state and federal securities law requirements.
