Background

About Catherine Dargan

I lead Covington’s Corporate and Mergers & Acquisitions practices, and have advised numerous companies on important strategic transactions for over 25 years. I focus my practice on mergers and acquisitions, including public and private, and strategic partnering arrangements from sales of emerging venture-backed companies to multi-billion dollar acquisitions. I structure and negotiate both domestic and cross-border transactions, and regularly represent clients in numerous industries, including: life sciences, defense and government contracting, consumer products, technology and gaming, media, education, and equipment and manufacturing. I also assist clients with corporate governance, compliance, and other matters. I advise corporate boards, independent directors, and special committees on mergers and acquisitions and corporate governance. My pro bono work includes representing a non-profit, non-partisan policy organization dedicated to engaging young adults in the political process, and advising a non-profit in various consulting and services arrangements. I recently served on the firm’s Management Committee for eight years.
