Brett Beter, a partner in the Corporate Practice Group, was quoted in the article "How FTC's Proposed Changes Will Affect Mergers and Acquisitions," published by the Baton Rouge Business Report on June 30, 2023. The article discusses the FTC's proposed changes to the notification and review process for mergers and acquisitions under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act. Brett explains that the proposed changes would extend the length of time it takes to close certain transactions while also increasing the legal and administrative costs for deal-making parties in such transactions.
