Our responsive, precise and constructive advice always bears our clients’ needs in mind. We think through all of the relevant issues, and provide thorough analysis with practical applications.
Morrison Foerster is a leading law firm advising issuers, agents and underwriters in a broad range of private and public financings. Our lawyers work hard to understand our clients’ businesses and listen intently as they describe their objectives. Our clients appreciate our dexterity and experience in crafting new financial products and offering methodologies when off-the-shelf approaches do not work. We think of financings as existing on a liquidity continuum from private financings to public offerings of investment grade debt. Our deep experience spans the continuum, including:
- Private Placements
- IPOs
- Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC) transactions
- Equity Offerings
- Debt Offerings and Rule 144A Offerings
- Liability Management
- Derivatives
- Structured Products
We have developed considerable industry-specific experience in areas involving biotech and life science, energy and utilities, financial services and financial institutions, REITs, and technology. We are recognized for our thought leadership and frequently provide our clients with legal updates, webinars and our popular FAQs, which provide plain English explanations to questions about types of financing or capital formation transactions, as well as discussions of securities law issues.
