What does a Corporate & M&A practice actually cover?

A Corporate & M&A practice covers the full lifecycle of a transaction — from initial structuring and due diligence through negotiation, regulatory approvals, signing, closing and post-closing implementation. At Averites, this includes mergers, acquisitions, corporate structuring, cross-border reorganizations and the commercial issues that determine a deal’s outcome: ownership, control, valuation, liability and exit.

Do I need a different lawyer for a cross-border M&A deal versus a domestic one?

Not necessarily a different lawyer, but you do need one qualified to coordinate across jurisdictions. Averites’ lawyers are admitted or qualified to practice in the United States, England & Wales and Ukraine, allowing a single team to advise on cross-border transactions rather than requiring separate, uncoordinated local counsel in each market.

When should a company involve M&A counsel in a transaction?

As early as possible — ideally before principal commercial terms are agreed. Averites identifies ownership, control, valuation and regulatory risks at the structuring stage, addressing them in the transaction’s documentation from the outset rather than allowing them to surface only after key terms have already been negotiated.

What makes a cross-border transaction more complex than a domestic one?

Cross-border deals typically require coordinating corporate, tax, competition, regulatory and disputes expertise across multiple legal systems at once. Averites manages this by coordinating local counsel, tax advisers and other specialists through a single, integrated transaction strategy, giving the client one point of responsibility for execution rather than several disconnected workstreams.

Which jurisdictions does Averites advise on for M&A and corporate transactions?

Averites regularly advises on transactions involving the United States, England & Wales, Ukraine and other international markets, combining top-tier international legal education with substantial cross-border transactional experience across these jurisdictions.

Does Averites advise both buyers and sellers in M&A transactions?

Yes. Averites represents buyers, sellers, founders, shareholders, strategic investors and financial sponsors across the full range of domestic and cross-border mergers, acquisitions and strategic transactions, acting on both negotiated bilateral deals and more complex, multi-bidder processes.

How We Advise on Complex Corporate and Cross-Border Transactions

Qualifications and Cross-Border Reach

Our lawyers are admitted or qualified to practice in the United States, England & Wales and Ukraine and combine top-tier international legal education with substantial cross-border transactional experience and recognition from leading legal rankings and professional organizations. We regularly advise on transactions involving the United States, England & Wales, Ukraine and other international markets, bringing together corporate, tax, competition, regulatory and disputes expertise where a transaction requires an integrated approach.
Our Approach Across the Transaction Lifecycle

We advise throughout the transaction lifecycle, from initial structuring and preliminary negotiations through due diligence, definitive documentation, regulatory approvals, signing, closing and post-closing implementation. Our approach is driven by the commercial issues that ultimately determine the success of a transaction: ownership, control, valuation, allocation of liability, regulatory exposure, financing, management arrangements and exit.
Early Risk Identification in Cross-Border Matters

We seek to identify these issues early and address them in the structure and documentation of the transaction, rather than allowing material risks to emerge only after the principal commercial terms have been agreed. In cross-border matters, we coordinate local counsel, tax advisers and other specialists through a single transaction strategy, allowing clients to manage complex multi-jurisdictional matters efficiently and with clear responsibility for execution.
