Speaking generally for tech M&A, market is healthy with down round and opportunistic acquisitions and general expectation is for PE/large strategics to look for deals (e.g undervalued startups unable to raise further VC funding) and accelerate buying activity through the fall.
Fwiw, I am at an AmLaw 100 as a 3rd year doing M&A for PE clients we are swamped with no signs of slowing down. Not any of those firms, but pretty sure we’re still actively hiring across the board.
Last in, first out
My exact worry
It’s risky but if your current firm doesn’t have work, then it’s also risky to stay. Here’s, how I would rank these Chicago corporate groups for M/A deal flow.
1. Katten
2. McGuireWoods
3. Faegre Drinker
4. Locke Lord (healthcare and insurance though)
5. Husch Blackwell
6. Levenfeld Pearlsein (banking/finance work)
I’m unsure about Akerman and Gould Ratner.
We have the work, I’m just tempted by the money
Pretty odd time but hey some firms might need to build out the team
