Career
Mr. Patterson’s practice focuses on mergers and acquisitions, public and private securities offerings, securities compliance and corporate governance matters, for domestic and international clients. He is co-head of Hunton Andrews Kurth’s Mergers & Acquisitions group and co-head of the firm’s Retail and Consumer Products Industry group.
His work spans multiple industries with a particular focus on retail and consumer products companies. He also plays a lead role in developing strategic relationships with some of the firm’s largest institutional clients.

Similarly, he has extensive experience with legal project management and creating alternative fee arrangements tailored to meet client needs.

With ‘deep experience’ in the M&A practice, Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP works in coordination with its capital markets and data security departments to advise on M&A due diligence, regulatory matters, and corporate restructurings. Counting mortgage and utilities companies amongst its client roster, the team’s scope of work also includes REIT M&A, energy M&A, and public and private transactions.
