Dykema’s 21st Annual M&A Outlook Survey

We canvassed CEOs, CFOs, and other professionals involved in M&A activities with their respective firms to gauge their insights and perspectives on the mergers and acquisitions market in the coming 12 months.

The results provide a snapshot of the M&A market and the economy this year and how they compare from previous years.


Our clients include private and public companies, private equity funds, financial institutions, and other providers of capital who count on us to deliver partner-level counsel across a wide breadth of practice areas that only a full-service law firm can provide. We do this with an eye toward the unique challenges middle-market businesses face.

Many of our lawyers began their careers working for companies in the same industries where our clients operate, so we understand what makes your business tick. We bring to bear this knowledge to provide actionable advice and counsel in the following areas:

  • mergers and acquisitions
  • private equity, venture capital, and mezzanine finance
  • commercial lending and finance
  • technology and sourcing transactions
  • securities
  • governance
  • taxation
  • employee benefits
  • estates and trusts
