Corporate + Transactions Practice Group partner Joseph Dimiceli focuses on mergers and acquisitions, strategic investments, incentive compensation and employment agreements. He advises businesses throughout their life cycle on all types of corporate matters, representing companies in the advertising and communications sectors, and private businesses in a wide range of industries. A self-avowed numbers guy, Joe understands the math behind financial terms and how deal points can impact them. This limits ramp-up time and ensures clients are well protected in the future. Whether structuring a sale, acquisition, minority interest, earn-out or put/call arrangement or handling a licensing deal, Joe brings clarity, calm, patience and discretion. He sees what lies ahead and helps clients plan beyond today, with strategies to leverage opportunities and avoid potential pitfalls. Listening to his clients’ ideas, issues and deal goals, he devises a strategy that prevents unnecessary conflict, accomplishes the clients’ objectives and contains costs. His creative, never-give-up attitude has helped clients thrive even in the most demanding economic environments and has made him counsel of choice for many. Beyond the deal, Joe structures, drafts and negotiates employment agreements, complex compensation arrangements, restrictive covenants and savvy executive exit transactions, as well as LLC, stockholder and investor rights agreements.
