Private M&A

HenryMae is a commercial law firm focussed on working with clients to complete private M&A transactions. 

​

Our practice has a strong focus on working with sell side clients, where we regularly work with clients pre-transaction to improve their internal governance and legal infrastructure, and anticipate issues that might be identified by buyers during due diligence. 

​

Throughout the transaction, we prioritise clear communication and collaboration with our clients, keeping them informed and empowered to make informed decisions. Our goal is to streamline the M&A process, mitigate risks, and facilitate successful outcomes that drive long-term value for our clients.

​

We help our clients to minimise risk, and maximise value by:

• agreeing a capped fee for our services so that our clients have certainty of their legal spend;

• invoicing our fees at completion so that clients can best manage their transaction cash flow; and

• only engaging senior lawyers on transactions so that our clients can benefit from decades of transaction experience.

​​

We work with a select number of clients to ensure quality and timeliness of our services. Most importantly we want to make sure that our clients have a positive experience when dealing with us.

​

We are a member of Legalmondo, an international panel of independent lawyers. Through Legalmondo we enable our clients to go global.

​

We work with Australian listed entities, start-ups, growth companies, and foreign companies with operations in Australia.
