Robert assists companies in obtaining funds from investors and lenders to grow and operate their businesses. These services often involve advising on the legal and regulatory aspects of raising capital through equity, debt, or hybrid instruments, and ensuring compliance with securities laws, investor protections, and transaction structures. Fundraising efforts should be legally sound, properly structured, and compliant with regulatory requirements to help attract investment, manage risk, and position the company for growth while protecting the interests of the company and its investors.
