Barry G.

I've represented hundreds of clients in M&A transactions, especially SMB business acquisitions. While some lawyers are generalists my practice is focused exclusively on business acquisitions. Beyond that, I've been a principal, as a buyer or sell, in nearly 20 transactions across an array of industries, and so I've been in your shoes, whether you're the buyer or seller. I graduated magna cum laude from the University of Pennsylvania, finished in the top 7% of my law school class, where I graduated with honors and was selected as a Managing Editor of the Law Review, worked as a law clerk for a federal judge where I drafted opinions for the judge's review and briefed the judge on applicable law, and I was trained at Ballard Spahr and Morgan Lewis, two of the largest law firms in the United States. I also acquired, built and sold dozens of businesses, exposing me to corporate and securities law from a real world, entrepreneurial perspective. I did most of the contractual, M&A, tax planning, employment law and other legal work myself for my own companies because I love practicing law. I thoroughly enjoy working with business owners and their management teams to craft efficient and creative solutions to legal challenges. That's why I returned to the full-time practice of law after building and selling a number of successful businesses. I have substantial experience with mergers and acquisitions, tax planning (I also have an LL.M. in Tax Law from NYU), employment law, corporate formation and governance. I've helped many clients comply with securities law issues in connection with raising capital through private placements and crowdfunding transactions under Reg A, Reg D and Reg S.
