Jonathan Shamay-Draluck is a seasoned transactional attorney who has led complex, high-value arrangements on behalf of, or opposite, dozens of Fortune 100 companies.

With a particular focus on the rapidly growing digital infrastructure industry, Jonathan has represented investors, hyperscalers, developers and others in data center construction, leasing, and the full range of ancillary commercial arrangements. He has also negotiated deployment of subsea and terrestrial fiber and supported operation of data network elements around the globe.

But his broad technology practice has brought him to serve in a variety of roles including as outside and in-house counsel to technology companies and IT consulting firms, leading efforts to align proprietary offerings, professional services and third-party systems, helping them to enable enterprises to leverage AI and other high-throughput platforms.

Extending his transactional capabilities beyond the technology sector Jonathan has represented pharmaceutical and medical device companies as they negotiated M&A, sponsored research, clinical trials, technology transfer, patent licensing, and manufacture agreements. He also counsels startups on formation, securities issuance, intellectual property protection, compliance, go-to-market contracting, and sale of control.
