Joint Venture Law Overview

Joint ventures enable multiple parties to pool resources to start, purchase and grow a business. One party typically provides the expertise, and the other parties contribute capital, often as silent partners. The most common entity used for joint ventures is a limited liability company (LLC).

Joint ventures are intricate transactions that require a team of attorneys with expertise in corporate law and securities law.

Our team of experienced attorneys assists clients throughout the entire joint venture process, from evaluating the risks of a deal and negotiating contracts to conducting due diligence and ensuring a successful closing.

We draft joint venture agreements that define key terms among the partners, including capital contributions, profit/loss distribution, management responsibilities, liability, long-term ownership rights, exit strategies, and contingencies.

In addition, our experienced securities law counsel ensures compliance with securities regulations and exemption filings. We provide comprehensive advice on all securities aspects of the investment, guiding clients on investor qualifications, investor outreach, and compliance with state and federal securities laws.
