Business Transactions

When it comes to business transactions, our strength at Allen & Gooch is our ability to tackle high-profile, high-stakes deals successfully. While we are comfortable helping small businesses purchase property or negotiating with vendors, our attorneys represent clients on sophisticated transactions governed by intersecting laws and subject to rigorous government oversight. We’ve structured critical business transactions for companies in such highly regulated areas as health care, finance, real estate, and oil and gas.  

Creating Value While Minimizing Risk

The hallmark of the Allen & Gooch approach is individualized attention. Our first priority is to become thoroughly conversant with our clients’ business objectives as well as the dynamics of their markets. This knowledge is our touchstone as we work closely with them to use the law to maximize value and minimize risk.

Taking Care of Business

We are always looking ahead, combining our legal experience with our knowledge of business to anticipate problems and structuring transactions to avoid them. When the need arises, we can always call on our Allen & Gooch colleagues in such areas as tax and construction to review transactions or provide counsel. Our goal is to manage the legal issues related to every transaction—no matter how complex—so that our clients can devote themselves fully to running their business.
