Merger and acquisition activity for private companies has continued at a heady pace during the pandemic and beyond. Lawyers practicing in this area must be familiar with the players, process, and lexicon of the industry. From investment banker engagement, the marketing process, data rooms, letters of intent, and negotiating and papering the deal to closing, knowing how deals get done-and identifying and protecting key client interests is essential. This program gives those new to the practice, and those seeking a refresher, an understanding of the process, key points of negotiation, and customary transaction documents.
