Venture Transactions
A significant portion of our practice is the representation of emerging companies and the institutions and individuals that invest in them. We thus have extensive experience with all types and stages of venture capital transactions. Further, since we represent both emerging companies and institutions that invest in them, our relationships can often have significant value for our clients. Our relationships also keep our attorneys close to the industry pioneers and sources of capital, who frequently play an important role in the development of new products and markets, technology-driven or otherwise.
Examples of private equity financings in which we served as counsel include the issuance of preferred stock by clients such as I-Path, Inc., IPO.com, Inc., Data Synapse, Inc., Goldsmith LLC, Tradescape Corp., and BondDesk.com LLC to, among other investors, Greenhill Capital Partners, L.P., UBS PaineWebber Inc., Goldman Sachs & Co., Morgan Stanley Dean Witter Venture Partners, CS First Boston, Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association, and OrbiMed Advisors LLC.
