Corporate and Transactional

Our corporate attorneys provide sophisticated legal advice on the full range of business services essential for both public and privately held companies. We advise enterprises of all sizes – from start-ups to Fortune 500 companies and large multinational corporations across a diverse range of industries.

At Potomac Law, our attorneys are agile and experienced at providing knowledgeable counsel, whether working together with in-house legal departments or functioning as sole legal counsel. We regularly advise clients on specialized areas of the law, serve as part of a major transaction team and provide critical advice on day-to-day issues, operations, and complex contract negotiations. Regardless of the scope or context of our representation, our goal is always to help our clients achieve their business objectives in the most efficient and advantageous manner possible.

Our attorneys have deep experience gained from senior leadership positions at prominent national law firms, lead in-house counsel roles at large and small companies and establishing and operating their own businesses. Given this depth of experience, our attorneys possess particular sensitivity to a client’s need for legal advice that is sound, pragmatic, and cost-effective.

We bring specialized expertise on a broad spectrum of issues ranging from corporate governance, business structuring and commercial contracts to complex international transactions and shareholder disputes. Whether negotiating a single agreement or structuring a complex global transaction, our attorneys are equipped to advise clients through all stages of a transaction.
