Securities & Equities markets

Bacchus’ team of U.S. and Canadian securities and equities lawyers works closely with new, high-growth companies to list them on stock exchanges in North America through IPOs, reverse mergers and plans of arrangement.

We draw upon big firm expertise, but provide small firm personal service, efficiency, speed and effectiveness. During and beyond taking companies public, we focus on requirements specific to the company’s stage of growth, and help them think about their corporate structure, governance and business in new and better ways. We get to know your business so we can be your trusted advisors while you achieve success.

Our practice isn’t limited by language or geographical boundaries. We represent dozens of international companies, including companies located in Canada, US, China, Hong Kong and Europe that operate across borders or want to access US or Canadian capital markets. Our lawyers are licensed in multiple jurisdictions, including the US and Canada; speak English, Mandarin, French, Spanish, Ukrainian, Polish and Russian; and understand the culture in business and on the ground in countries around the world.

We represent of small and medium public and private companies, domestic and international issuers, officers and directors, employees, public company boards, audit committees, special committees, brokers, venture capitalists and investment banks in both small scale and large scale transactions.
