Benesch is pleased to welcome Nicole Yoon as a partner in the firm’s Corporate Practice Group in its rapidly expanding New York office. A trusted business advisor with experience leading complex transactions, Nicole guides clients through their most significant deals, helping them navigate novel issues and implement practical, business-focused solutions.

“Nicole brings a wealth of deal experience and a collaborative approach that reflects the culture we’ve built at Benesch,” said Corporate Co-Chair Doug DiMedio. “She will be a key asset to our clients as they navigate today’s complex and ever-changing business challenges.”

“I’m excited to be joining Benesch at such a pivotal point in the firm’s growth,” Nicole said. “The firm’s entrepreneurial and collegial culture stood out to me, along with its commitment to maintaining that culture even as it continues to expand.”

In her practice, Nicole advises publicly traded and privately held companies, private equity sponsors and their portfolio companies, and other investment funds on complex transactions and other corporate matters, with a focus on cross-border and domestic mergers, acquisitions, divestitures and other strategic transactions. She has extensive experience in deal structuring, post-merger integration, corporate governance, joint ventures, equity financings, corporate restructurings and recapitalizations, spanning a wide range of industries.
