Nicholas S. Howe

Nick’s experience ranges from counseling Fortune 500 companies and private equity funds and their portfolio companies to entrepreneurs and emerging businesses across many industries, including software, semiconductor, cybersecurity, and life sciences. Nick has represented many of these clients, including emerging companies and portfolio companies, throughout their entire lifecycle, guiding them through the negotiation and implementation of employment arrangements, incentive equity plans, and other startup matters, as well as equity and debt financings, corporate restructurings, and sale transactions. 

Nick routinely advises on complicated transaction structures involving pre-transaction restructurings, equity rollover components, the use of representations and warranties insurance, and earnouts, among other things, on behalf of both buy-side and sell-side clients. Prior to joining Morgan Lewis, Nick was an associate in the Silicon Valley office of another major international law firm.
