Our strengths span corporate and securities law, mergers and acquisitions, public and private equity financings, domestic and cross-border transactions, and corporate governance matters. Clients also look to us for our leadership capabilities in commercial technology, intellectual property and strategic transactions. And, to address the challenges and opportunities of today’s uncompromising business environments, we draw on our firm’s capabilities in areas such as executive compensation, investment management, and international corporate matters.
Throughout the growth cycle and across the full range of corporate issues, our team of lawyers integrates their talents and brings their legal insight and their business instinct to support our diverse client base.
We assist our corporate clients with their real estate needs, from start-ups securing their first office space to our national clients with leasing, development and space elimination needs. For real estate clients, our corporate team advises on matters such as issuing securities, private placements, going public, making real-estate related investments, together with other ancillary corporate and tax matters.

- We act for private companies as they prepare for and navigate through the initial entry into the public markets through IPO or RTO. Once public, these clients rely on us for advice on SEC reporting requirements, secondary public offerings and other corporate finance matters.

We assist with compliance programs and internal investigations, as well as SEC and government investigations, institutional shareholder issues, shareholder litigation and strategic and crisis management.
- Our securities lawyers represent their clients in every aspect of corporate finance, helping to provide assistance with capital transactions throughout the client’s growth stages in the capital markets. We represent investment banks in equity and debt offerings, as well as both U.S. and non-U.S. issuers.
- Advising clients engaged in acquisitions, divestitures and joint ventures, we work with both public and private companies located in the U.S. and abroad, using all types of acquisition structures, across a wide range of industries.
- We are actively involved with emerging growth companies, delivering a multidisciplinary combination of corporate, intellectual property, commercial technology, and executive compensation, and litigation skills.

LHTT supports its clients with a variety of corporate governance issues, including:
- Advice and representation to corporate officers, boards, board committees and directors: We help boards and individual directors understand their fiduciary responsibilities and how to minimize director liability.
- Development and management of compliance policies and programs: A good compliance program can prevent small problems from becoming serious and expensive ones
- Internal investigations, for clients who are subjects of investigations or have initiated them: As boards of directors, particularly outside directors, develop a heightened awareness of allegations of corporate wrongdoing, internal investigation may occur more frequently
- Advice and representation in SEC and government investigations: We have former regulatory officials and former state prosecutors in the firm who have served on the “other side of the table,” representing investigating entities
- Institutional shareholder issues and pension plans: Pension plans and other employee equity plans will undoubtedly be subject to increased scrutiny and potential major regulatory or legislative change
- Strategic and crisis management: A crisis management plan can be a company’s recipe for survival.
