Never underestimate anyone. That’s Trish Rogers mantra. As an accomplished international business attorney, Trish knows that ordinary people are capable of extraordinary feats each and every day. Trish utilizes her business and legal background to prepare for all contingencies to best serve her clients. 

Decisive and well prepared, Trish represents domestic and international companies in the planning, implementation, and execution of mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, and private equity/venture capital financings. She relies on her extensive business, financial, and legal knowledge to assist investment initiatives and in the negotiation and drafting of agreements to successfully resolve complex deals and create profitable operational structures.

With an extensive background in commercial lending, Trish has helped many international companies establish operations in the U.S. and has represented banks and non-banking institutions from U.S. and overseas in debt financing transactions. She has in-depth experience with private capital funds and assists with fund formation, offering document preparation, tax, securities, and regulatory compliance issues.

Thorough in approach, Trish believes that the best way to serve her clients is to understand their businesses from the inside out. She spends a great deal of time performing research and due diligence to understand industries, markets, and corporate structure to provide the most comprehensive legal consultation.
