Vice Chair, Corporate Practice

Caroline Dotolo is Vice Chair of the Corporate Practice and provides in-depth counsel to public and private companies on day-to-day corporate matters and complex business transactions, including capital markets transactions, SEC disclosure and exchange listing compliance, corporate governance, mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, and general corporate law. Her practice reflects significant experience advising issuers, investors and underwriters across industries such as life sciences, technology, and financial services, among many others, guiding clients from early-stage financing through complex public offerings.

Ms. Dotolo also regularly advises early-stage companies on matters such as formation and founder issues, equity structure, financing and governance, and also provides pro bono representation for nonprofit organizations. Her transactional perspective is informed by prior experience with civil and criminal matters, including work in the Economic Crimes Unit of the Civil Division at the US Attorney's Office in Boston.
