Securities Law

Best & Flanagan represents companies in public and private securities offerings and securities law compliance. We also represent investors purchasing securities and registered investment advisors.

From the first round of financing to the initial public offering and beyond, we provide legal advice that adds value to our client’s bottom line. Our primary commitment to smaller and midmarket companies allows us to focus on clients often overlooked by larger firms.

Our firm is known for being flexible in terms of both representation and fees to fit each client’s specific goals. We assist our clients in navigating through the changing regulatory and commercial environment of today’s equity and credit markets. We are able to quickly grasp the core issues of each transaction, develop the most cost effective financing structure, as well as identify and avert potential problems. Our legal counsel consistently reflects an understanding of and commitment to each individual client’s business plan and commercial objectives.
