Equity Financing & Venture Capital
Fueling growth, protecting assets.
For most companies, financing is essential to growth. We regularly assist with equity financing and venture capital investment for both start-ups and potential high-growth businesses. We do so with an appreciation of the liabilities to which financing agreements, if improperly handled, can expose a company. We thus strive to ensure that their interests are protected at every stage of the agreement. When advising technology-based businesses in financing arrangements, we are especially attentive to protecting all underlying intangible assets.
