CORPORATE

Gorman & Miller’s corporate group handles most types of commercial and business transactions. Its lawyers have represented businesses of all sizes and stages, ranging from start-ups to Fortune 500 companies. Its clients range from small, California-based companies to multinational corporations. The department’s practice is primarily transaction-oriented. It has particularly strong expertise in handling (i) the legal issues facing high technology companies and (ii) the purchase and sale of businesses (as stock sales, asset sales or mergers.)

Our corporate department takes special care to be cost-effective. Unlike many large firms, it does not overstaff projects with junior lawyers with little experience. As a result, our business lawyers handle matters quickly and economically.

Recent transactions include the representation of a large Chinese company in a successful $20 million stock offering, the sale of a privately held satellite company to a large publicly traded aerospace company, negotiation and preparation of intellectual property licenses, preparation of product distribution agreements, representation of a Silicon Valley high technology company in the closing of a preferred stock financing, corporate asset sales, and the successful reorganization/merger of a California-based corporation.
