How Do New York Attorneys Structure an International Transaction?
New York attorneys evaluating an international transaction start with legal structure, because how a deal is built determines tax exposure, liability, and long-term enforceability. They begin by asking which structure best fits the parties' risk tolerance and jurisdictional obligations: a wholly owned subsidiary, a joint venture, or a direct cross-border agreement. Every international transaction I have reviewed confirms that this structural decision shapes everything that follows, including governing law, dispute resolution, and pre-closing documentation.

For corporations, understanding cartel liability is critical because violations expose the company to federal criminal prosecution, substantial civil damages, and reputational harm. Cartel enforcement has intensified over the past two decades, and courts apply these statutes broadly to capture a wide range of coordinated anticompetitive behavior.

Trade and Commerce Litigation for Business Disputes and Legal Strategies
Trade and commerce litigation covers business lawsuits, commercial contract disputes, fiduciary claims, regulatory compliance, and legal remedies affecting corporate rights. Trade and commerce litigation often begins long before a lawsuit is filed, as contract issues, regulatory concerns, or business disagreements gradually develop into legal disputes.
