Our private M&A team has the experience necessary to get deals over the line.
We have the expertise and confidence that comes from acting on Australia’s most significant and complex M&A transactions. We understand market practice and the issues, risks and commercial drivers for deal success, and apply this to ensure that our clients' deal objectives are achieved.
Our experience covers all aspects of M&A transactions, acting for buyers, sellers and other participants including domestic and global investors, fund managers, operators and financiers. Our team is sector-focused and brings together experts from all relevant legal disciplines.
With deep market knowledge and insights, we understand the market trends as they evolve, driving high-quality advice. This is supported by our regular analysis of the key metrics of all private M&A transactions involving the firm each year.
We take a strategic approach to maximise prospects of deal success in both competitive and bilateral processes, focusing on matters with valuation implications and tailoring negotiation strategies accordingly.
Our team also brings significant experience covering warranty and indemnity insurance, an increasingly important feature of many private M&A deals.
