Over his career, Adam has advised clients on M&A, capital markets transactions, license and collaboration deals, venture capital financings, and commercial transactions. Frequently, clients seek his advice on hybrid transactions such as M&A transactions with back-end milestone payments or contingent value rights, options to acquire companies or technology, and product divestitures.
