Capital Markets

Binder Law advises companies and investors on the securities-law dimension of raising capital, from a company's first exempt offering through the more complex instruments that accompany later-stage growth, debt financing, and restructuring. The work spans private placements and Regulation D exempt offerings, equity and convertible securities, and the securities-law compliance that every capital raise requires, structured so that today's financing does not create problems for the next one.

Our experience also reaches the more specialized end of the capital structure. We have prepared and negotiated credit agreements, security agreements, guarantees, and promissory notes on the debt side, and warrants, contingent value rights, and exit-financing instruments in the context of complex restructurings — the kind of work that demands precision and a clear understanding of how each instrument behaves over time.

This is securities counsel built on transactional experience at Kirkland & Ellis LLP, Taft Law, and Warner Norcross + Judd LLP, delivered with the efficiency of a modern, AI-native practice and without the staffing model that inflates fees on transactions of this size.
