Mergers, Acquisitions and Strategic Investments
The fast-growing media, Internet, technology and communications industries offer companies and investors the potential for high returns. Industry clients turn to Squire Sanders’ technology-savvy communications lawyers for practical and creative legal advice and strategy for due diligence, private equity transactions, venture capital transactions and international mergers and acquisitions. Our communications lawyers work closely with Squire Sanders corporate and tax lawyers to expedite the timely completion of complex mergers, acquisitions and strategic investments.
A critical component of any transaction involving an entity in the communications industry is performing a comprehensive due diligence review of the licenses and regulatory approvals held by the target company, along with verification of the contractual relationships necessary for the ongoing provision of core communications services. The management and timely completion of due diligence become exponentially more complex when the target entity operates internationally, often requiring teams of lawyers to complete work concurrently in multiple countries on a coordinated and qualitatively consistent basis. We have substantial experience in completing international due diligence efforts and providing clients with real-world assessments regarding the results of these reviews and their likely impact on the viability and success of the post-transaction entity.
