Davis & Gilbert's expertise and innovation in complex mergers and acquisitions, financings, joint ventures and strategic alliances has brought us recognition as one of the most effective team of attorneys for companies engaged in advertising, public relations, media and other marketing communications. Our Corporate group provides services to many of the largest marketing communications companies in the world, including Grey Global Group, Omnicom Group, Publicis Groupe and WPP Group.

We also represent a number of mid-size holding companies, including Cossette, Incepta and Maxxcom, and are frequently called upon to represent individuals and small companies looking to sell or recapitalize their businesses. Among other things, we are known for being experts in structuring and advising on "earn-out" transactions, with our Corporate group having handled hundreds of these types of deals in recent years.

Our Corporate practice has grown significantly and includes clients from a wide range of industries in addition to marketing communications. For instance, we have handled transactions for medical labs, software development companies, apparel manufacturers, food distributors, cosmetics companies and restaurant chains.

In addition to our mergers and acquisition practice, we regularly handle matters relating to corporate finance, corporate governance, securities offerings, SEC compliance, shareholder and partnership agreements, LLC operating agreements, employment and consulting agreements, non-competition and confidentiality agreements, licensing agreements and corporate tax.

Specific areas of expertise include:
