Corporate Finance
HortenCC is an expert in corporate finance. As a corporate law firm, we have handled hundreds of venture financings both from the perspective of the investor and the company raising money. We have been involved in every type of corporate finance transaction, including start-up or seed financings, “angel” investments, venture capital financings, institutional financings, later-stage equity or mezzanine financings, and private debt financings. We maintain relationships with a number of business angels, venture capital funds, incubators, merchant banks and private investors in the United States and abroad, increasing your odds of obtaining financing through our partnerships.
A Corporate Law Firm without Corporate Fees
Our corporate finance legal services are offered on a flat-rate basis and include:
- Preparing the company for the financing
- Negotiating and structuring of the terms of the financing
- Preparing the term sheet
- Drafting the private placement memorandum
- Creating the equity or debt security that will be issued
- Negotiating and drafting the subscription agreement, investors’ rights agreement, right of first refusal and co-sale agreement, and other legal documents
- Establishing stock option pools
- Establishing employee compensation and incentive programs
- Recapitalizations
- Complying with federal and state securities laws.
Because we handle so many venture financings, our corporate law firm has a deep and up-to-date knowledge of the current conditions in the rapidly changing capital markets. We are therefore able to help our clients structure financing terms that are competitive in the marketplace.
In addition, our corporate law firm has significant expertise in structuring and preparing offering materials for private equity funds, including venture capital funds, hedge funds, real estate funds and similar limited partnership syndications. And unlike other corporate finance law firm models, we never charge hourly rates for our expertise.
