Driving middle-market private company M&A forward
Ryan Van Den Elzen concentrates on middle-market private company mergers and acquisitions (M&A) with a heavy focus on private equity. He leverages his extensive transactional experience to:
- Focus on what matters both in deal terms and diligence.
- Help clients understand the practical implications of legal risks and deal terms.
- Understand how and where the market is moving to provide practical guidance with a view to efficiently closing deals.
- Develop a streamlined process and small but dedicated team of lawyers for each transaction, all pulling in the same direction with a common goal of getting the deal done.
As an important aspect in private equity transactions, Ryan also helps clients draft and implement a full suite of equity documents, addressing the needs of the lead private equity group, institutional co-investors, financing sources and management.
