Securities and Capital Markets
The Securities and Capital Markets attorneys at Zukerman Gore represent public and private issuers, as well as financial institutions, private equity firms, hedge funds, family offices and other capital providers and individual investors across the full range of the capital formation process. The firm structures, negotiates and documents both private and public equity investments for all constituents in the capital raising process.
In the public sector, the firm advises on the full range of traditional capital markets transactions, including initial public offerings, secondary offers, and going private transactions. The firm also represents clients in connection with so-called alternative capital market transactions including special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs), private investments in public entities (PIPEs) and reverse mergers.
A natural outgrowth of the firm’s ‘33 Act practice is its ‘34 Act regulatory and compliance practice. From the periodic reporting required of Issuers (10K’s, 10Q’s, 8k’s and Proxy Statements) to officer and director compliance (Forms 3’s, 4’s and 5’s and 10b5-1 trading plans), Zukerman Gore’s Securities and Capital Markets professionals provide advice and counsel advice with respect to all aspects of the life cycle of a public company.
In addition to its broad public-sector practice, Zukerman Gore’s Securities and Capital Markets attorneys also structure and negotiate private equity investments for issuers and capital providers, including effecting private placements of equity, debt and convertible instruments commencing with an initial “angel” or venture round, through all follow-on, subsequent private financings. The firm also negotiates and structures public and private exist scenarios and represents large institutions in connection with their participation in club transactions.
The firm’s securities and capital markets attorneys work closely with our general corporate, corporate compliance, tax and finance colleagues who lend their expertise to efficiently manage the complex capital raising process.
