Hunter focuses his practice on advising clients on significant, high value business transactions, including mergers and acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures and strategic investments.
He regularly acts as lead transaction counsel on complex matters spanning multiple jurisdictions, where transaction structure, process discipline and risk allocation are critical to achieving client objectives.
