Morrison Foerster excels at advising middle-market funds as well as a large roster of target and portfolio companies on growth investments and leveraged buyouts in the TMT sector, especially in connection with agritech, digital infrastructure, and healthcare tech transactions. The team is also noted for its deep-seated expertise in SPAC mergers, PIPE deals, and take-private transactions, and it frequently leverages its global firm network to guide its clients through cross-border investments. New York lawyer Mitchell Presser is an expert on public and private transactions in the food and agriculture sector and co-leads the team with San Francisco-based Patrick Huard, who maintains close relationships with clients such as Alpine Investors and handles a very broad range of buyouts and exits. San Francisco lawyer Susan Mac Cormac primarily handles investments in the energy space, while Omar Pringle, who is based in New York, is well-regarded for his expertise in the tech and life sciences sectors. Also in New York, Aly El Hamamsy is a key contact for restructurings and joint ventures.

‘Patrick Huard has been a trusted partner to me and my team.’
‘Amazing people. Attentive partners and strong associates beneath. Capable of scaling and providing a comprehensive suite of solutions. We view the MoFo team as our business partners vs our lawyers. Very much feel they are on our team and putting the client first.’
‘Patrick Huard and his team have helped build many of our platform investments. They are truly business partners to us who think commercially.’
- ‘The practice has a much more tailored approach and less of a mass market feel, which, when you are talking about strategic advice, is incredibly important. While incredibly sophisticated and understanding of complicated situations, they also have an extremely well-grounded and logical approach the helps clients get to the right answer.’
- ‘Mitchell Presser specifically is one of the most creative, well grounded and logical individuals I’ve met, and I would call on him for advice in almost any situation. He also surrounds himself with individuals who are cut from the same cloth so that the team is generally on the same page and pulling the oars in the same direction.’
- ‘Quality of team throughout. Partners are fantastic, but also draw on an incredibly strong set of associates that have allowed them to scale with our needs. Really love the all-in-one solution set across our needs. We think of our MoFo team as equally important to anyone who’s a full-time employee in building our companies.’
- ‘Patrick Huard – always available, providing valuable insights and commercial recommendations as opposed to just presenting facts. Patrick is a true business partner for us.’
