Richard Hall and Dan Cerqueira Contribute to The Legal 500’s 2024 Country Comparative M&A Guide

Cravath partner Richard Hall served as contributing editor of The Legal 500’s 2024 “Mergers & Acquisitions Country Comparative Guide,” which was published in April 2024. The guide provides a pragmatic overview of M&A laws and regulations across a variety of jurisdictions. Together with Richard, partner Daniel J. Cerqueira authored the United States chapter of the guide, which reviews M&A trends, the current state of the market and key considerations for companies and shareholders.

Richard and Dan also authored a “Hot Topic” article entitled “Post‑Crispo World,” which reviews how the Delaware Court of Chancery’s reasoning in Crispo v. Musk impacted the evolution of various Con Ed provisions in merger agreements, such as the lost‑premium provision, as well as the legislative and market responses to the Delaware court’s findings.
