Why Cooley?
Superior platform + Cooley culture = Doesn’t get any better.
Cooley is one of the few firms in the country truly focused on and built to meet all the needs of disruptive companies. In terms of capital markets, we’ve represented more companies going public than any other for decades. And we’re also amongst a small handful of true go to’s for all the major investment banks. But equally important – we do so as a true team. Our team is diverse in every respect. And we pride ourselves in providing the highest level of expertise and client service, but in a respectful, team-focused and collaborative manner. And that makes all the difference in my life every day, and really resonates with our clients also. As one recently said: “œYour team just looked and felt different than the other firms that came in and pitched us. “
Some of the clients with whom I work
Uber, Allogene, Arena, Ionis, Jazz, Mirati, Seattle Genetics and Vir, as well as every major investment bank.
Our clients would say
Tons of experience, both on the company side and bank side. Pragmatic and comes up with solutions. Runs through walls for us. Collaborative, is all about the team and gets along really well with the other side. Cares deeply. And I’ve never seen anyone consume more sugar free Red Bull and 5-shot Americanos at the printer than that guy!
