Join us on May 28th at 12:00 (Eastern) for a CLE Webinar!

Carveout transactions present a unique set of challenges for corporate legal teams — from managing complex separations and transition agreements to navigating regulatory hurdles and protecting ongoing business operations. 

Join us for an engaging webinar designed specifically for corporate counsel, where our team of seasoned panelists will walk through practical strategies for tackling the legal, operational, and risk management issues that arise in carveout deals. We’ll share lessons learned from recent transactions, highlight key diligence considerations, and offer tips for ensuring a smooth process from pre-signing through post-closing. 

Whether you’re preparing for a divestiture, acquiring carved-out assets, or supporting your business through a strategic transaction, this session will provide actionable insights to help you navigate carveouts. 

Topics will include: 

  • Structuring and negotiating carveout transactions
