Ramsey has an extensive private equity and mergers & acquisition practice. For over 25 years Ramsey has regularly represented private equity funds, strategic acquirers, fundless sponsors and family offices in connection with leveraged buyouts, sales of portfolio companies, growth capital investments, mezzanine loans, and venture capital investments.

Ramsey also regularly represents closely held businesses and their owners in connection with sales of their company to strategic or financial buyers. Many of these transactions involve one or more sellers “rolling-over” equity and having post-closing employment with the buyer. Ramsey routinely helps his sell-side clients address the additional complexities that come from these situations.

Prior to his legal career Ramsey was an accountant with PriceWaterhouse, and he uses his strong tax, accounting, and finance background to help his clients navigate many of the complex issues that arise during transactions.
