Leveraged Buy-Outs Practice Group

Leveraged Buyout  (LBO) transactions are multi-faceted deals and often contentious and complicated. Haynes and Boone has experience representing all sides of such deals, from management teams looking to take a company private to the banks providing the funds to make the deal complete and company board committees considering LBO offers.

The heavy debt load required for an LBO presents many legal issues and barriers. We advise our clients to help them find the best solutions for their part of any leveraged buyout deal, whether structuring, documenting, negotiating or closing. We also work to help our clients avoid any exposure to future legal backlash.
