Eitan Hoenig Partner

Eitan Hoenig helps emerging companies, founders, entrepreneurs, investors, and venture capital and investment funds navigate special situations that require thoughtful and strategic counsel. Eitan is often asked to advise parties undergoing business separations, investment restructurings and workouts, co-founder terminations, co-founder disputes, executive transitions, stakeholder disputes, sensitive corporate governance engagements, and contested investor solicitations. Clients look to Eitan for his ability to unpack, organize—and, ultimately—fix complex, sensitive corporate and stakeholder governance situations.

In addition to his crisis management and special situations work, Eitan represents entrepreneurs and high-growth companies at all points in their development. He advises on formations, founder governance, seed and venture capital financings, debt financings, strategic transactions, complex commercial transactions, joint ventures, executive and board transitions, acquisitions, divestitures, spinoffs, mergers, and other exit transactions. Eitan partners closely with clients in industries experiencing technological and regulatory disruption, such as direct to- consumer (DTC), digital health, fintech, and blockchain.

Eitan’s practical, goal-oriented strategies derive from his experience building start-up companies. Eitan helped grow Kluk Farber Law, a boutique law firm, into a larger law firm that was acquired by Perkins Coie in 2022. Prior to that, Eitan ran product development and operations for a healthcare infrastructure start-up company and led the launch of its product at a major hospital system.
