McGuireWoods has continued the strategic expansion of its nationally recognised M&A practice with the arrival of partner Brian L Hager, who brings nearly 17 years of corporate deal experience to the firm’s Richmond, Virginia office
Hager’s extensive deal experience includes advising public and private companies on mergers and acquisitions, venture capital investments, securities offerings and corporate governance matters. He represents clients across a broad range of industries including manufacturing, retail, consumer packaged goods, finance and insurance.
Joining Hager is McKenzie Carson, an accomplished deal lawyer with experience in a wide array of industries. Hager and Carson come to McGuireWoods from Hunton Andrews Kurth. They join a practice that consistently ranks among the leaders in US and global M&A deals – including private equity transactions – in league tables published by Bloomberg and Refinitiv. McGuireWoods’ M&A practice also has earned nationwide recognition from Chambers USA and The Legal 500.
“Brian is a go-to M&A lawyer and trusted advisor for public and private companies in Virginia and throughout the country,” says Michael Woodard, chair of McGuireWoods’ M&A and Energy Transactional Department.
