About Samantha

Samantha Barbere’s practice primarily focuses on mergers and acquisitions and general corporate governance. Samantha represents both general corporate and healthcare clients and advises businesses on a broad range of complex transactional matters. My focusMergers & Acquisitions I represent both buyers and sellers in the purchase and sale of businesses through stock and asset transactions. I frequently partner with tax counsel to advise clients on potential tax implications of proposed deal structures and counsel clients on the most tax advantageous structure for their transactions. I typically represent middle-market and start-up companies, whose businesses span a wide variety of industries including, technology based companies, life sciences, health services, and food and beverage. General CorporateI represent clients in the negotiation and preparation of a wide variety of commercial agreements. I also assist clients with entity formation, corporate structuring and restructuring, capital raises, and the dissolution or winding down of their business. Cannabis I have assisted clients with their investments in cannabis-related companies and advise on a wide range of issues including legal planning, corporate guidance, and compliance strategies. Looking aheadI see consumer priorities driving an influx of mergers and acquisitions between the healthcare and technology sectors. In an effort to keep up with consumer demands, there is a competitive interest among businesses to break free of in-person limitations. I believe that consumers’ fierce desire to gravitate toward businesses that prioritize remote convenience will lead healthcare industries to seek to implement creative remote-based technology, thereby causing an influx of M&As between the two industries.
