We help management assess the relative merits and drawbacks of a public offering. Our SEC and tax specialists offer detailed advice on both corporate and tax implications arising from the public sale of company debt or equity. We provide guidance to management that facilitates access to the public securities markets. We then assist the organization in the preparation of financial information required for inclusion in the registration statement as mandated by federal securities law and regulations.

During and prior to the registration process, our SEC specialists provide our clients and their attorneys and underwriters with invaluable guidance and support. This assistance may take the form of compiling an appropriate business plan, reviewing financial forecasts and projections, helping to select an investment banker, guiding the client in the preparation of financial statements and the auditing of those statements as required by the SEC, and representing the client before the SEC at pre- and/or post-filing conferences in response to accounting-related inquiries. Our significant experience in public offerings permits us to anticipate and solve problems before they occur.

After the public offering has been accomplished, and the company becomes subject to the Securities Act of 1934, we are available to guide the client in the preparation of quarterly, annual, and periodic forms and statements.
