Armed with an intimate understanding of our clients’ technologies and industries, the firm’s 250 corporate lawyers are driven to achieve a client’s business objectives and deliver success.

Since 2007, Morrison & Foerster has helped to raise nearly $2 billion in venture financing for technology companies. The firm’s deep understanding of the venture capital market ensures that transactions are structured consistent with the then-current market terms and close quickly in a cost-effective manner. Morrison & Foerster also has represented more than 100 leading venture capital funds in both fund formation and venture investments, and the firm’s extensive network of relationships within the venture capital community is readily available to client companies as they seek financing. Morrison & Foerster’s network also includes many of the leading investment banks that regularly take technology-centric companies public or assist them in the merger and acquisition process. As clients grow and their needs evolve, the firm remains an invaluable business partner. Since 1998, Morrison & Foerster has completed more than 60 initial public offerings raising more than $4 billion in proceeds and hundreds of mergers and acquisitions with aggregate transactional values of more than $100 billion.

The firm also provides early-stage companies with a wide range of high-quality complementary legal services in areas such as intellectual property protection, technology licensing and collaborations, domestic and international tax planning, executive compensation and labor.
