Post-acquisition, good private equity counsel should “know the company” and “know” each of the portfolio companies to be most efficient and add maximum value. A private equity client should choose counsel with experience in business and financial restructurings, add-on acquisitions and recaps, and who is able to go beyond just formation/purchase and sale, to ongoing fund and portfolio company support for operations.
Pruvent does not hire associates or new lawyers. Some law firms rely on leveraging newer lawyers that are less efficient (i.e. in some cases – “reinventing the wheel”) to build/increase profitability. Using only more experienced counsel can help to ensure a better/more efficient product.
