Joint Ventures

A joint venture requires confidence.

We advise on the full range of joint ventures and strategic alliances, including combinations of business units, creation of partnerships, and collaborations to develop, deploy, or finance products and services.

We start by helping our clients identify the right structure – whether that involves forming a new corporate entity, repurposing an existing entity, or entering into contractual arrangements.

We bring to bear the resources and know-how of our firm in areas like antitrust, IP, employment, investment funds, real estate, and tax.

Our lawyers help put in place governance arrangements to protect our clients' positions while building trust and fostering relationships among partners, and also support venture growth and, if needed, break-ups or restructurings, including through new investors, profitable exits, or continuing expansion.
