Overview
Victor DiGioia is an entrepreneur who represents entrepreneurs. Victor looks for business solutions and acts as a business partner. He knows the hurdles an entrepreneur faces and becomes part of the solution — not part of the problem.
Mr. DiGioia heads Becker’s corporate department, which has steadily expanded over the last decade. He was the catalyst behind the development of the China practice and a member of the leadership team responsible for the firm’s recent expansion into Europe and South America.
Mr. DiGioia represents start-ups, mid-sized enterprises and seasoned corporations in industries ranging from technology and bio-tech to manufacturing and government contracting. He has guided many businesses through the transition from private enterprise to public company. “Going public can be a rude awakening to an entrepreneur and I try to take the blinders off without ruining the excitement of the occasion.”
Victor is an expert in corporate governance and SEC regulatory compliance. His corporate team acts as outside counsel and corporate secretary to public and private companies. “We outsource ‘in-house’ counsel services for a set fee. Instead of one or two attorneys working in-house our clients get a team with greater depth of experience and knowledge, and high availability.” Mr. DiGioia also acts as counsel to boards of directors and Audit, Compensation, Nominating, Corporate Governance and Special Committees of the boards.
Victor’s practice also includes a wide range of corporate finance matters specializing in public and private offerings, broker-dealer formation and regulation, venture and private equity capital investments, mergers and acquisitions and angel investments. His finance clients consist of public and private companies, institutions, investment banking firms and individuals, and he has represented issuers, underwriters and placement agents in over 500 private and public securities offerings.
