Deal Structuring
Over the past decade, VLF has also brought in attorneys who work on structuring deals to maximize profits, create opportunities, and contain potential exposure to our clients. While VLF has a seasoned litigation team, the goal is to help our clients make beneficial deals that keep them out of litigation wherever possible. The VLF transactional teamworks with our clients to structure joint venture entities operating in the Gulf of Mexico, the United States at large, and in Latin America, maximizing prospects and limiting risks our clients may face in any new deal.
Every company in the oil, gas, and petrochemical arena needs attorneys working with them in both their business operations and to defend or prosecute claims in court in Houston. When putting together a major transaction or when a deal has broken down, you want an experienced law firm that understands your business and technology.
