As a corporate legal advisor with PretiFlaherty, Tim represents public and private companies regarding periodic reports, corporate governance, M&A, capital formation, and other matters.  His high-value advice and judgment benefits from having managed businesses and been responsible for making final disclosure decisions for SEC reports, NASD compliance, and reports and filings with State regulators – an advantage that few technical experts can claim.

  • AreteCapital Group, a regional boutique investment bank registered with NASD and a member of SIPC that specialized in private capital formation, MBOs and other M&A transactions, and corporate finance.  As a registered securities principal, and as an executive with a few of the firm's portfolio companies, Tim regularly advised companies on compliance with the '33 Act, and co-managed the firm's NASD compliance and state law filings.
  • Orr and Reno, P.A., a New Hampshire law firm.  Over the course of 15+ years, Tim represented numerous companies with federal and state securities matters, ranging from (i) with the SEC-- periodic reports to Sections 13 (Williams Act/takeovers), 14 (proxy matters) and 16 (Insider Trading) to Rule 144 issues; (ii) with state regulators:  Lloyd's administrative proceedings where Lloyd's insurance policies were securities; blue sky filings for bond offerings, private placements, and private placements; broker-dealer and registered representative licensing and compliance; and enforcement actions by state regulators against B/Ds and registered reps; and (iii) federal court civil litigation: in proxy contests, disclosure litigation and other 10b-5 actions
