Dorsey & Whitney continued to grow its merger and acquisition practice by adding corporate attorney Margaret C. Bae to its New York office as a partner.
Bae has experience with mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, corporate finance, private equity, corporate governance and general corporate representation.
Bae’s corporate practice focuses on helping companies grow their businesses through mergers and acquisitions, financings and capital raises.
Her transactional capabilities include structuring and negotiations for acquisitions of companies and assets as well as joint ventures, partnerships and consortiums for various projects with strategic and financial partners. With extensive experience in financings, Bae helps companies negotiate letters of credit, working capital lines and other lines of credit with lenders.
Bae also has project finance experience, specifically in the energy sector, representing sponsors in negotiations with governments, development finance institutions and international and regional commercial banks. Bae has successfully raised capital for both startups and more established companies, including through blockchain technology offerings, as well as representing investors and funds in the deployment of their capital. Bae also regularly advises private fund sponsors and investment advisors on a wide range of matters, including regulatory and compliance issues, portfolio company representation, and exit transactions.
Prior to joining Dorsey, Bae was a partner with Olshan Frome Wolosky in its New York office. She also served as senior vice president and general counsel at SoEnergy International, executive vice president and general counsel at ContourGlobal and an attorney at Cravath, Swaine & Moore.
“Margaret brings a wealth of mergers and acquisitions expertise and experience, and adds additional depth and new dimensions to our New York office corporate group,” Bill Stoeri, managing partner of Dorsey & Whitney, said. “Dorsey has made a concerted effort to grow strategically in its New York office over the last two years. We continue to seek strategic opportunities to expand our presence in New York.”
