Synopsis
Raising capital for your business or real estate acquisition? Attorney Russell Weigel opens your eyes to the risks of raising capital but shows you a path to minimize these legal risks. Whether public or private, companies raising capital the wrong way and not properly planning for unforeseen events can result in substantial loss. CAPITAL FOR KEEPS is designed to save you, the entrepreneur, thousands of dollars in legal fees by educating before you meet with your lawyer on your legal options and the standards of conduct expected of you to keep you away from the courthouse. Drawing on Mr. Weigel's many years of practicing corporate finance law, counseling corporate fundraising efforts, and litigating securities cases, CAPITAL FOR KEEPS explains complex legal issues in understandable terms and provides examples of common situations where the business world's financing needs can run afoul of the complex legal regulations that apply to private investment offerings and real estate syndications.

À propos de l?auteur
Russell C. Weigel, III, Esq., a Florida resident, has been practicing securities law since 1990. CAPITAL FOR KEEPS is a product of his government regulatory and private practice of law experiences. He has continued his transactional and litigation securities practice since 2005 at his own law firm. His focus includes advising public and private company clients on capital raising transactions, preparing their SEC reports and registration statement filings, and defending clients involved in arbitrations and FINRA, SEC, and state securities enforcement matters. From 2001 to 2005, Mr. Weigel worked successively for two law firms, in private practice, as a securities transactional and litigation attorney. He advised on public company mergers and general corporate and securities regulatory compliance matters. Mr. Weigel also defended clients involved in NYSE and SEC investigations and prosecuted and defended securities arbitration and civil litigation matters. Between 1990 and 2001, Mr. Weigel worked for the Securities and Exchange Commission as an enforcement attorney. He supervised and conducted numerous investigations and litigated many civil injunctive and administrative proceedings nationwide. Most of his cases involved allegations of fraud, sales of unregistered non-exempt securities or regulatory compliance violations. Mr. Weigel also supervised investigations and litigated cases involving securities issuers’ Ponzi schemes and false financial reporting. The targets of Mr. Weigel’s cases typically were stock promoters, public companies, broker dealers, investment advisers, and stock transfer agents. Prior to his SEC experience, between 1989 and 1990, Mr. Weigel served the state of Florida as a criminal prosecutor. In addition to his legal practice, Mr. Weigel serves his local community through continuous service to the Miami Rescue Mission and to his church.
