With the experience gained in thousands of transactions, Jones Day benefits lawyers understand deal-making and work closely with lawyers in the Firm's highly-ranked Mergers & Acquisitions Practice to create successful solutions to the difficult compensation and benefits issues raised by today’s business transactions.
In due diligence, we know which issues need focus and which do not. We identify liabilities that need to be allocated between the parties and reflect the allocations precisely in the transaction documents. Where the focus is how employment and benefit arrangements, including equity compensation rights and employment agreements, are to be treated in and after the transaction, we design sensible solutions consistent with the theory of the deal. When needed, our solutions are expressed in the transaction documents to provide flexibility and protection for our clients.
In the private equity transactional context, Jones Day routinely quantifies benefit costs and risks pre-transaction, and determines how they can be prudently allocated between buyer and seller. Jones Day also routinely provides advice to minimize the prospect that issues recur at the exit transaction stage, and assists buyers with the implementation of employee benefit plans, and equity and other management incentive arrangements, following closing.
