Top IPO law firm praises DFIN's sophisticated tech and 24/7/365 service
CHICAGO, Sept. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- DFIN (NYSE: DFIN), a leading global risk and compliance solutions company, announced today that Wilson Sonsini, a leading IPO law firm that has represented technology pioneers associated with thousands of milestone innovations, is the first law firm to leverage DFIN's ActiveDisclosure concierge platform to streamline the IPO process for its client, OneStream, Inc.
The news brings together two leaders in the business of preparing companies for initial public offerings. Wilson Sonsini has advised more U.S. technology companies on their IPOs than any other law firm and was named one of Fast Company's Top 10 Most Innovative Companies in North America for its forward-thinking approach to improving client service with technology. DFIN is the global leader for IPO services with 700+ traditional IPOs filed and 350+ SPACs serviced over the last six years, including a majority of PE- and VC-backed IPOs.
Wilson Sonsini utilized ActiveDisclosure's sophisticated technology and experienced DFIN support team, which includes filing, project management, and layout experts.
"ActiveDisclosure's enhanced functionality, paired with DFIN's 24/7/365 premium service, provided a great client and user experience," said Michael Nordtvedt, Co-Head of Wilson Sonsini's Capital Markets practice. "We were thrilled to work with DFIN to support the OneStream IPO and anticipate that ActiveDisclosure will continue to significantly boost the efficiency of IPO processes."
"Wilson Sonsini is a tech-forward law firm that brings a passion for innovation, accuracy, and efficiency to their work," said Craig Clay, President of Global Capital Markets at DFIN.

Here's How It Works
ActiveDisclosure transforms the IPO registration statement process and addresses some of the biggest pain points for legal firms guiding clients through an IPO. It provides an ecosystem of digital workflows, allowing attorneys to securely share documents for real-time reviews and comments by clients, bankers, auditors, and other stakeholders using ActiveDisclosure's role-based collaboration features.
Attorneys can also leverage DFIN experts 24/7 to execute work that doesn't require strategic legal expertise, including managing projects, tracking deadlines, providing project guidance and recommendations, laying out documents, and more. In addition, ActiveDisclosure offers:
Streamlining the IPO process for clients
"ActiveDisclosure significantly streamlined our Form S-1 drafting process, boosted efficiency, and enabled close collaboration with our client," said Victor Nilsson, Wilson Sonsini partner. "The collaboration capabilities and security features saved time and helped us mitigate risks at every step."
Historically, law firms have drafted and filed the Form S-1 using financial and other information provided by clients — a manual process that typically requires hundreds of hours of work. ActiveDisclosure transforms this process with modern collaboration software, enabling attorneys to spend more time focusing on client legal matters. It saves time in what is inherently a resource-intense, deadline-driven process.
After an IPO, a DFIN team sets up the issuer for successful transition into post-IPO financial reporting and SEC filing. That's why clients who benefit from ActiveDisclosure during their IPOs are better prepared for post-IPO SEC compliance, including the preparation and filing of Forms 10-Q and 10-K.
