Ballard Spahr entered the Boulder market in 2017, expanding our presence in Colorado as well as our strength in corporate and securities, mergers and acquisitions, licensing, strategic transactional matters, and litigation.
Boulder is a hub for innovation and entrepreneurial leadership and our team is well-known in that space. Our Boulder attorneys have decades of experience representing emerging growth companies in the life sciences, technology, and natural products sectors—guiding them through entity formation, financing, and licensing issues to merger, sale, or initial public offering. They also represent the venture capital, private equity, and strategic investors involved in such companies.
More established clients call upon our Boulder attorneys for representation in equity offerings, disclosure and reporting requirements, formation of strategic partnerships, compliance with stock exchange rules, corporate governance issues, and other securities law matters. We assist with employee incentive programs, intellectual property matters, and executive compensation issues.
The Boulder office is Ballard Spahr's second in Colorado after Denver, which opened in 1981. Lawyers there represent clients in litigation, regulatory, and transactional matters and provide a nearby resource for employment and real estate needs. In both Colorado offices, we have attorneys who are nationally recognized for their work in First Amendment law.
We believe our clients are best served by innovative solutions that spring from varied viewpoints and perspectives. And we are committed to creating a vibrant community where people of all backgrounds can thrive.
Pro bono service is a hallmark of the firm, and our attorneys devote thousands of hours to pro bono matters every year. Attorneys in Boulder support a variety of local and national causes, including the Davis Phinney Foundation and the Temple Grandin School.
