Michigan Law Firm - Warner Norcross + Judd LLP

Michigan

My formative years in the United States provided me with firsthand exposure to dedicated local attorneys who tirelessly championed the causes of small business owners, preserving the fruits of their labor. My experiences during my stay in Nanjing, China, introduced me to the world of international business transactions and the legal professionals instrumental in making these deals a reality. At Warner, I have the unique opportunity to combine these two passions: facilitating exhilarating business deals and ventures while significantly impacting people's lives. Being an integral part of my clients' enterprises and safeguarding their hard-earned success is immensely fulfilling.

Mohamad Knio is a corporate transactional attorney who focuses on mergers and acquisitions (M&amp;A), investment fund creation and general corporate law.

core/paragraph

Within his M&amp;A practice, Mo conducts due diligence by thoroughly reviewing the financial, operational, legal and regulatory aspects of each deal – including identifying potential risks and assessing the overall strength of a business. He’s involved in contract negotiations and drafts and reviews various legal documents relevant to a deal. Additionally, he advises on corporate structures and governance, and is mindful of current and future tax implications.

Mo helps clients raise capital through fund formations and securities offerings – and provides counsel for the creation, operation and regulation of investment funds. His legal guidance extends to registered investment advisers, investment adviser representatives, broker dealers and the services they provide to clients. He also assists with reporting and filing requirements with the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).

Mo plays a vital role in facilitating a wide range of corporate transactions: entity formation; drafting, amending and reviewing investor adviser contracts, business operating agreements, nondisclosure agreements and real estate agreements; advising on business expansions and joint ventures.

Mo is dedicated to guiding clients through the intricate web of legal implications, ensuring their interests are safeguarded within the framework of the law. His exceptional listening skills transcend the mere financial dimensions of each legal matter. Mo is genuinely invested in his clients' success, unwavering in his commitment to helping them achieve their goals.

Mo received his law degree <em>magna cum laude</em> from University of Detroit Mercy School of Law. He holds a bachelor’s degree in economics from the University of Michigan and an international baccalaureate degree from Nanjing International School in Nanjing, China.
