Kareem S. Tawfic

Public Companies & SEC Compliance

Kareem helps boards and management teams stay ahead of an increasingly complex SEC compliance landscape, advising public companies on understanding and complying with legal and regulatory requirements, including stock exchange listing standards and ongoing reporting obligations with the SEC. He counsels clients and their boards on oversight responsibilities, board and committee structures, and fiduciary duties, and guides stakeholder engagement strategies that help clients navigate this increasingly complex regulatory environment.

M&A & Capital Markets

Kareem also brings broader transactional experience in mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and capital markets to bear when clients need a strategic deal perspective. He represents buyers and sellers, including publicly traded entities, in M&A and other strategic transactions, and assists issuers and underwriters in capital markets transactions, including offerings and private placements.

Teaching & Pro Bono

Kareem serves as an adjunct professor at the University of Minnesota Law School, teaching a section of its experiential learning course, “Law in Practice,” where students participate in simulated negotiations and exercises focused on client service. He also enjoys maintaining an active pro bono practice, serving under-represented entrepreneurs and start-up businesses in his community.
