Credit Strategies
Raising debt on favorable terms, or renewing existing facilities, has become tougher even for the strongest borrowers. Organizations need to realistically evaluate their alternatives, understand their true cost of capital, and approach debt in the context of an effective overall capital management strategy.
Our professionals assist through structuring advice with respect to the entire spectrum of debt products, and with the management of lender relationships, including covenant adjustment negotiations, facility extensions and restructuring and recapitalization options.

Intellectual Property & Licensing
Licensing frequently is the first step in the exploitation of hard and soft intellectual property. Whether structured as a license for a cloud-based PaaS or SaaS offering, or the license of non-public know-how, we understand why innovating organizations often fail to obtain significant economic returns from their licensed intellectual property.
Armed with this understanding, we provide cohesive licensing advice and develop licensing strategies that seek to assist you in building a strategic foundation.
Investment Structures
The pooling and deployment of investment capital in today's complex business and legal environment requires the expertise of a skilled professional team at every stage: formation, operation and liquidation.
Whether as a sponsor raising funds and making investments or to guidance with the complex domestic and cross-border regulatory and tax issues relevant to U.S. and non-U.S. investors, we understand the need for efficient investment structures that adapt to a variety of investments and that preserve investor relationships over the long term.
