Waltz’s experience includes serving as an advisor to clients with respect to mergers and acquisitions and general corporate counseling. He has experience in the preparation and negotiation of documents related to entity selection and formation, corporate structure, corporate governance, merger and acquisitions, and commercial contract matters.
“Peter joining the firm comes at such an exciting time for our capital markets practice. We continue to see fast-paced, robust growth so the addition of Peter’s extensive securities expertise is a significant strategic advancement for the Milwaukee-based team and our firm generally,” said Kate Bechen, Managing Member of Dykema’s Milwaukee office. “We look forward to the continued expansion of our capital markets team, service offerings, and client base through Peter’s leadership.”
