A reverse merger is a transaction in which a private firm merges with a public company to become a publicly-traded company. This type of merger is referred to as a “reverse takeover.” This approach allows private companies to go public without going through the usual initial public offering (IPO) process. Reverse mergers can be a cost-effective option for a private company to join public markets, but they also come with a unique set of legal and regulatory hurdles. From the first due diligence steps through to the conclusion of the transaction, our attorneys have the expertise to navigate the complex terrain of reverse mergers.
