M&A & Corporate Changes

In order for a merger or acquisition to create meaningful shareholder value, a company needs a sense of the likely return on its investment. A large part of that is the human resources part of the deal. In concert with our firm’s corporate lawyers, Squire Sanders labor and employment lawyers advise clients on the proper steps up front to ensure the client’s goals for its post-transaction workforce can be accomplished both legally and practically without unknown liabilities. Before the deal is closed, we also help clients develop an employee transition plan and participate in any restructuring of executive and employee titles, benefits plans and compensation structures. In addition, we regularly manage or assist employers with reduction in force initiatives driven by post-transaction redundancies in human resources at the executive level and across all functional levels.
