STARK

STARK is a national business and transactional law firm advising venture capital and private equity sponsors, family offices, private credit providers, lenders, investors, founders and operating companies across a broad range of markets and industries. With more than 27 years of experience, STARK delivers practical, business-focused legal counsel for complex transactions, special situations and critical business matters.

​STARK has extensive experience in receiverships, special master engagements, restructurings, workouts, bankruptcies, enforcement actions and distressed asset strategies. We represent and advise clients navigating complex financial, operational and real estate challenges, bringing sound judgment, strategic perspective, and decisive execution when circumstances demand it.

​Our transactional practice spans private credit, asset-based lending, real estate finance, structured credit, venture and growth-stage financing, mergers and acquisitions and corporate finance. We represent funds, sponsors, lenders, investors, borrowers and companies in structuring, negotiating, documenting and closing complex transactions—and continue to support clients throughout the life of their investments.

We also advise founders, emerging and growth-stage companies, family offices, multi-generational investment platforms and operating businesses on venture capital, corporate matters, commercial transactions, governance and strategic growth. STARK regularly serves as outside general counsel, providing practical, commercially grounded advice aligned with each client’s business objectives.

STARK handles commercial and residential real estate transactions nationwide and serves as a title agent for American Eagle Title, supporting closings across jurisdictions.

Founder-led and supported by an experienced affiliated attorney team with a national footprint, STARK combines sophisticated legal capabilities with senior-level attention, responsiveness and relationship-driven service. We focus on practical solutions, sound judgment, and helping clients navigate complexity and move forward with clarity and confidence.
