Profile
My very first client was a public company that believed, like us, it’s possible to more closely align the interests of the firm and the client. Ten years later, we still perform a substantial amount of work for that client and they’ve come to trust and respect the firm.
Bob Goldberg has an extensive background in counseling clients in a wide range of commercial, corporate and regulatory matters. He joined Taylor English in 2005 and is the former chair of the Corporate and Business Practice Group. Mr. Goldberg concentrates his practice in the areas of commercial transactions, mergers and acquisitions, business organizations, and general business operations support. He has significant experience in the technology, telecommunications, hospitality and staffing industries.
Mr. Goldberg advises clients on entity formation, corporate governance, capitalization issues, equity compensation strategies, capital-raising issues, mergers and acquisitions and other commercial transactions. He counsels clients at various stages of their development to address issues, problems and strategy.
Previously, Mr. Goldberg served as vice president and general counsel at Harbor Payments Inc. (now an American Express company), where he was responsible for all aspects of the company’s legal affairs and human resources. Prior to Harbor Payments, Mr. Goldberg spent seven years at MCI Communications Corp., where he was managing commercial counsel supporting the company’s global marketing, product development and sales organizations. During his tenure at MCI, Mr. Goldberg also held two non-legal, business development positions.
