We represent companies, underwriters, investment companies, financial institutions and government instrumentalities in a full range of financing transactions and regulatory compliance issues under federal and Puerto Rico laws. Some of our attorneys have years of experience advising publicly-traded companies in roles ranging from principal outside counsel to general or in-house counsel. Our philosophy of providing creative problem solving to assist in closing transactions is embraced by clients looking for attorneys who not only identify the legal issues but also solve them.
Among the matters that our Corporate & Public Finance attorneys handle are the drafting of SEC filings (including 1934 Act periodic reports, proxy statements and registration statements), overseeing securities law and NYSE listing compliance, preparing offering documents and blue sky surveys, advising insiders on Section 16 reporting matters, preparing equity-based compensation plans, organizing private equity funds, advising directors and senior management on corporate governance and other requirements, drafting corporate policies and codes of ethics and business conduct, and training directors and senior management on the latest legislative and regulatory developments. We advise and represent clients in offerings of debt and equity securities in Puerto Rico and the United States. We regularly serve as bond counsel, underwriters' counsel and borrower’s counsel in offerings of municipal securities by the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and its public instrumentalities.
