Corporate & Commercial
Goodman Tavendale Reid has been partnering its clients on major transactions in every core area of corporate and commercial law since its formation. Mergers and acquisitions, major commercial contracts, banking and finance, securities law, insolvencies, corporate governance and restructurings are all bread and butter to our dedicated, specialist team.
We work in areas that include:
- Mergers & Acquisitions
Whether your company is facing a sale, merger or acquisition, complex debt or equity financing issues or a hostile takeover it’s all second nature to us, including any cross border dimensions.
- Banking & Finance
Our team has significant banking experience both in New Zealand and overseas and acts, for example, for a major Australasian trading bank. We can advise you on banking and securities law, bilateral and syndicated loan facilities and structured financial transactions.
- Commercial Property
However big or small, and whatever your industry, we will ensure your interests are served in any commercial or rural property transaction. - Insolvency & Restructuring
Our insolvency and restructuring law practice is regularly instructed by major national and local insolvency practitioners. Our team’s experience is extensive, and includes advising on insolvency situations in a multi jurisdictional environment.
- Energy & Climate Change
Unlike many law firms our knowledge extends to the environmental impact of your commercial activities. Our acting for government bodies adds another level to our experience in this area.
- Agri-Corporate
Goodman Tavendale Reid’s pre-eminence in the rural sector combines with our corporate and commercial expertise to form a unique set of skills and experience. If you operate in the world of agriculture, mention our name. We’re confident that you’ll hear that our reputation is second to none.
- Technology & Intellectual Property
We are also leaders in the technology sector and have been involved in the CDC Hi-Tech Launch Platform Programme since its inception. In addition to the technology industry, we regularly provide contractual and intellectual property advice to companies operating in a wide range of areas.
- Infrastructure & Public Sector
Local authorities, council controlled and government organisations have all instructed us on significant commercial matters involving major infrastructure and maintenance projects.
Our clients regularly act as our referees and we are happy to provide contact details if you need them.
