We are committed to the industry and understand the nuances that make the outdoor industry unique. We`ve been attending outdoor shows, speaking at Rendezvous, working with Camber Outdoors on DCI issues, and attending the OIA Capitol Summit for about 15 years – which is an amazing way to keep abreast of the regulatory issues our customers face. We see them in their own environment, not just in legal advice. We know the industry, we love the industry and we know its people and culture. Our customers are our friends – we meet them at trade shows, drink a beer and talk about family and life. In recent years, there has been a lot of merger activity in the industry, a lot of consolidation. M+A transactions are always tricky, especially when there are gaps in risk allocation expectations. There are a lot of pieces that need to fit together. There is due diligence for the business being sold, negotiation and completion of contract terms, consent of a third party, regulatory review and integration of systems, operations and people. It`s much more than the price announcement you see in the news. In business operations, challenges arise with innovations and new business ideas. How does it fit into the existing legal landscape?

It`s often a retailer or brand that`s at the forefront of what`s new and exciting in the outdoor space, and that ranges from family-owned businesses like Burley Design to industry icons like Columbia, from growth-stage companies like Xero shoes to hybrids like Loge Camps, which operate hotels designed to get people outdoors. The common denominator is that they drive innovation in the industry and they look to us to see what legal problems we might encounter. With each innovation, it takes a long time for the law to catch up; Often, companies find themselves in an interesting gap phase where they do something that a law addresses – but not quite. Think about the shift from analog to digital: for so long, all of our laws have focused on analog, and it really took them a long time to catch up with an e-commerce-driven world. In early January, we found attorney Andrew Grant in his element: The week before, nearly six feet of snow had hit Washington`s Snoqualmie Pass, a cluster of ski resorts 50 miles east of Seattle.
