Founding Partner
Marcus Brennan
33+ years of practice
Marcus Brennan is the deal lawyer founders call before the term sheet and the counselor they keep on speed-dial long after the close. He leads the firm's corporate and transactional practice, advising companies from formation through financing, growth, and exit.
What sets Marcus apart is fluency in the business behind the document. He has structured hundreds of acquisitions, financings, and reorganizations, and he reads a cap table the way litigators read a docket — for leverage and for risk.
He co-founded the firm with Eleanor Hale and continues to serve as outside general counsel to several of the firm's longest-standing clients.
