Our Legal Thinking

We are at the forefront of evolving the traditional legal approach to M&A transactions to incorporate legal tools and solutions which promote and accelerate ESG and/or impact objectives. We are part of industry discussions and thought-leadership on this topic, because we believe lawyers have a critical role to play in bringing about such change.

The Difference with Allectus

Purpose objectives can be subjective and are not as easily measured as financial objectives. We tackle the detail around this inherent difficulty to ensure that both investor and investee are clear on purpose expectations and obligations.

At the outset and as part of our legal due diligence, we assist you in selecting investments which meet your financial, ESG and/or impact criteria.

We ensure your deal documentation effectively measures, monitors and manages financial, ESG and/or impact metrics/KPIs. We devise appropriate remedies for breaches of financial, ESG and/or impact objectives.

Ultimately, we understand that your deals must achieve more than just financial returns – we work with you to understand all of your deal objectives to ensure they are appropriately included in your transaction documents and process.
