Peter Bogdanow

Corporate

Peter has a proven ability to complete deals on time, at good value for his clients, while preserving their key business terms. That's why many clients choose him to be their designated acquisition counsel, and why they trust him year after year with their most significant transactions. When he completed seven acquisitions in four years for a single client, it was not an aberration. Peter's dealmaking ability also translates across industries. He has successfully acquired and sold companies for clients in the energy, food and beverage, health care, manufacturing, software, waste management and other industries.

Peter regularly represents private equity sponsors and their portfolio companies, as well as family offices, individual investors, family-owned businesses and acquisitive companies. He represents both buyers and sellers, allowing him to understand the concerns of all parties. Management teams also turn to Peter for help obtaining private equity capital and arranging their employment terms.

Widely respected as a leading M&A attorney, he also assists clients with other deals that facilitate growth. He regularly structures and negotiates joint ventures, capital markets transactions and investments for minority and controlling stakes. In these transactions, he consistently overcomes the many complications that can arise — from tax issues to corporate governance matters to the many issues that crop up in cross-border deals. Peter's ability to clear those hurdles is what makes him so valuable to his clients.
