This seminar provides a guide to representing corporate clients throughout the corporate life cycle - from the formation of the entity to taking it public. We would begin the course by reviewing the entity choice considerations covered in Business Organizations but also discuss the practical steps required to form each entity type. Then, we will outline some of the most significant issues growing companies face. This would include ownership disputes, administrative considerations, vendor and sales contracts, employee relations, basic financing arrangements, offering ownership interests, and consolidation. Finally, we will discuss the process of going public. Each day, we would introduce documents we use in our practices and ask students to draft key sections in light of concepts introduced in the course of the class.
