Our managing partner provides selective securities law counsel to clients in Atlanta and nationwide, including:
We engage selectively with capitalized founders and investors in Atlanta and nationwide:
Atlanta is the business capital of the Southeast, with M&A activity driven by logistics (home of UPS and Delta), financial technology (NCR, Fiserv), and healthcare. The city's position as a transportation hub creates unique opportunities in distribution, supply chain, and franchise businesses. Atlanta's robust Black business community adds diversity to the deal pipeline not seen in most markets.
Atlanta offers strong deal flow at valuations below the Northeast corridor. The region's rapid population growth and business formation rate create a steady supply of acquisition targets across all sectors.
Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson airport (the world's busiest) makes it the most accessible city in the US - a strategic advantage for acquirers building multi-location platforms that require frequent travel between portfolio companies.
Georgia enforces non-compete agreements under its 2011 Restrictive Covenants Act, which provides clearer standards than the prior common law framework - courts can now 'blue pencil' overly broad restrictions rather than voiding them entirely.
A structured, methodical approach to securities law
We discuss your securities law needs, review your current situation, and outline potential strategies and timelines.
Our team conducts thorough due diligence of your corporate structure, financial statements, and compliance history.
We develop a customized securities strategy tailored to your business goals, whether it's going public, raising capital, or maintaining compliance.
We prepare and file all necessary documentation with the SEC, state regulators, and exchanges, managing the entire process.
After the transaction closes, we provide continued support for ongoing compliance, reporting, and corporate governance matters.
"Companies that treat securities compliance as an afterthought end up spending three times as much fixing problems that proper planning would have prevented. The SEC doesn't care that you didn't know. They care that you didn't comply."
Enforceable under 2011 statutory framework. Blue-pencil available.
Entity mergers and conversions are filed with the Georgia Secretary of State, Corporations Division. Annual registrations are required. Professional license transfers require separate filings with the relevant Georgia licensing board.
