With issues related to financial management becoming more relevant today than ever, the role an attorney plays in structuring transactions, negotiating deal terms, and coordinating the underwriting process is becoming increasingly important. These courses have been offered across the country and most attendees deem them "one of the best CLE courses they have ever attended." We have designed this Continuing Legal Education (CLE/MCLE) course to better equip attorneys with the financial tools to understand and apply the more quantitative aspects of mergers and acquisitions, venture capital, and financial management.
