Private Placement Attorney

When raising money for your business you must prepare a private placement that will:

1)      Offer a business opportunity and financial terms that appeal to investors.

2)      Comply with a myriad of laws regulating private investments.  If you fail to comply with these laws you may be subject to civil and even criminal claims.

Our attorneys can help you meet both of these goals.

Assistance with Raising Capital

Our attorneys are active in capital markets.  We can help you understand your financing options, including angel investments, venture capital and private equity financing, and debt.  In addition, we can help structure the offering to maximize your chance for a successful transaction.  Further, since we maintain relationships with the investment community, we may be able to introduce you to funding sources.

Assistance with Legal Compliance

Every time you sell an ownership interest in your company you are issuing a security. All security sales must be registered or you must find an exemption from registration. In addition, you must comply with a multitude of disclosure, anti-fraud and other regulatory requirements. If you fail to comply you can be held personally liable for repaying all investor funds, and may be subject to SEC sanctions.

We will help you comply with both state and federal securities laws, and can show you how to best conduct your capital raise so that you do not run into problems. We can also suggest cost-effective approaches that maximize your fund-raising efforts.
