It was nice to see you at the 2026 NBA CLS Corporate Counsel Conference.

Kevin Slaughter and LP’s transactional lawyers focus on representing clients in M&A transactions, supplier agreements, and commercial transactions across multiple industries and jurisdictions. We represent strategic buyers and sellers, private equity funds and their portfolio companies, hedge funds, family offices, high-net-worth individuals, independent sponsors, and sophisticated private investors.

Our Employment & Executive Compensation group works closely with our transactional teams to advise on workforce, culture, and leadership matters critical to successful deals, and to guide clients through the evolving landscape of AI‑related employment practices, including the use of automated decision‑making tools in hiring, performance evaluation, workforce management, and compliance.

Our Litigation team brings extensive experience in complex disputes and commercial litigation, including real estate, debtor‑creditor, finance and bankruptcy matters, labor and employment disputes, insurance coverage disputes, trusts and estates litigation, and professional liability matters.

We bring broad experience handling a wide spectrum of transactions and help our clients throughout the planning, structuring, and execution phases of the transaction process and beyond.

How we add value

To add value and enhance the client experience, we:

• • Strive to understand clients’ businesses and risk thresholds so we can actively anticipate and satisfy their legal needs.

• • Provide day-to-day general counsel to help clients understand and solve complex legal, tax, and business issues at every stage of representation.

• • Build a business relationship with clients as their trusted strategic advisors, not just as their lawyers.

• • Use our extensive experience advising business organizations and their owners to serve as an available resource for clients’ teams on general legal matters.

• • Give practical, market-based business advice and focus on clients’ business objectives.

• • Solve problems rather than simply identifying them.

• • Know the market for relevant deal terms.

• • Develop and refine proprietary legal form documents used for similar and repeated legal matters.

• • Make introductions to other service providers, potential employees, investors, or targets to improve your business.

• • Use proprietary project management tools to increase efficiencies and opportunities for greater cost savings and better execution.
