Telecommunications Law

Position

A proven transactional attorney with more than two decades of experience, Asaf primarily represents telecom infrastructure funds in their mergers and acquisitions (M&A), corporate and real estate transactions, and artificial intelligence (AI) technology companies in their transactional needs.

From complex contracts and financings to traditional M&A portfolio acquisitions that are at the intersection of corporate and real estate work to other general transactional matters, Asaf is known for his strategic, substantive and diligent approach to getting deals done efficiently.

Asaf has focused on representing several telecom infrastructure funds in their development and acquisition of tower portfolios and other assets, representing fiber companies in their joint ventures, and in the sale and purchase of data centers. He has developed a particular expertise in wireless infrastructure transactions, based not only on industry and vertical-specific knowledge, but also the practical needs that impact the representations, warranties and indemnifications of buyers and sellers, the assignments of ground leases and easements for traditional cell towers and macro cell sites and rooftops, as well as purchase price adjustments related to cash flows.

Asaf has also supported the growth of several technology companies as outside general counsel, with a particular focus on the comprehensive legal needs of companies providing AI-driven solutions, from AI-specific contracts to venture financings to privacy policies and board and governance issues.
