Partner Louis Lehot was quoted in the July 12, 2021 Reuters article, “Analysis: Dealmakers see M&A rush, then chills, in Biden’s antitrust crackdown.” The article suggests dealmakers are expecting a wave of transformative U.S. mergers and acquisitions (M&A), as companies rush to complete deals before President Joe Biden’s antitrust push takes shape, to be followed by a slowdown when regulators start cracking down. According to Louis, “My fear is the only one that this is going to hurt is the startup and the venture capitalists who are developing technology that suddenly no longer can sell that to its natural acquirer,” said Louis Lehot, partner at Foley & Lardner LLP.
