Our Service Offerings: How We Can Help

Our team in San Diego brings to bear extensive experience representing clients in many areas, including:

Industries of Focus

  • Life Sciences: We understand the business realities and legal concerns that innovators in the dynamic life sciences industry face. Our global team works together across borders and practice disciplines to advise companies on the full scope of transactional, regulatory, compliance, enforcement, and litigation matters in every sector of global life sciences, including biotechnology and pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and diagnostics. We provide advice at each stage of the product life cycle — helping clients navigate collaborations, capital raising, acquisitions, intellectual property disputes, and high-stakes litigation — while closely monitoring industry changes, market demands, and policy hurdles.
  • Technology: Our lawyers are at the forefront of technology-related transactions, representing both emerging and established companies in licensing, development, collaborations and joint ventures, outsourcing, standards setting, IP purchases and sales, and the tech and IP aspects of mergers and acquisitions. Clients seek our counsel in novel matters that touch on artificial intelligence, financial technology transactions, and digital health sector deals. We deliver all of the core competencies that are vital to the technology sector, providing tailored advice to clients seeking to invest in, acquire, or deploy new technology solutions, as well as advising on the full scope of issues that impact the day-to-day operations of a technology company.

Areas of Practice

  • M&A: With particular strength in life sciences, healthcare, and technology, our lawyers are well-versed in handling all types of M&A matters. We collaborate with colleagues across the firm’s multidisciplinary practices to represent both buyers and sellers — from multinationals to startups — in domestic and cross-border M&A transactions, in addition to counseling corporate venture groups on their minority investments in emerging-growth companies.
  • Emerging Companies and Venture Capital: We provide strategic business and legal advice to emerging companies and their founders, managers, investors, boards of directors, and advisers, particularly in the life sciences and technology sectors. Our lawyers represent companies in the process of formation, funding, and growth, as well as with regulatory compliance, acquisitions, joint ventures, IPOs, and beyond. We also represent venture capital funds in portfolio company investments, investor relations, fund governance, and strategic collaborations.
  • Global Finance: Our lawyers advise lenders and borrowers on growth-stage and middle-market financings, drawing upon in-depth knowledge of complex deal structures, cross-border transactions, and investor documentation issues. We also represent lenders and agents on fund finance transactions.
  • Commercial Litigation: Our team leverages a combination of first-chair trial skills and deep interdisciplinary experience to address the legal and regulatory issues underlying commercial litigation and disputes, focusing on helping our clients mitigate risk and achieve their business goals.
  • Labor and Employment: We focus on providing strategic support to the technology and life sciences sectors and their private equity and venture capital sponsors in a broad range of labor and employment matters.
