The CLM Business Transactions Group regularly represents clients ranging from entrepreneurs starting new businesses, to third generation family owned businesses, to large national and multi-national corporations. CLM attorneys handle business transactions of all kinds including mergers, acquisitions and dispositions, venture capital transactions, licensing arrangements, sales representation agreements, distribution agreements, private placements, leveraged buy-outs, spin-offs, shareholder, partnership and operating agreements, franchising, government contracts, labor and employment matters, succession planning and exit strategies. CLM attorneys also provide advice on daily operating decisions, and assist clients in making strategic and tactical business decisions.
CLM attorneys also represent their clients in secured and unsecured financing transactions, including term loans, lines of credit, asset-based loans, accounts receivable financing, factoring arrangements, loan workouts and debt restructurings. CLM maintains close relationships with banks and other institutions, accounting firms and other advisors, many of whom include CLM on their “recommended” legal counsel lists.
The goal of CLM business attorneys remains constant regardless of the nature of the client or the transaction–to provide intelligent and creative “hands-on” legal counsel, combined with an energetic and aggressive devotion to the best interests of the client and the highest level of professional excellence.
