Adler Pollock & Sheehan is pleased to congratulate our clients on the closing of Charter Communications, Inc.’s acquisition of Cox Communications.
AP&S attorneys Alan M. Shoer and Todd D. Amaral served as Rhode Island regulatory counsel, guiding the transaction through the Rhode Island Division of Public Utilities and Carriers’ approval process. AP&S worked closely with the joint applicants to ensure their petition for transfer of control conformed with the rules and regulations set forth by the Division, and that their petition for financing authority would ensure the combined company would continue to provide quality access to cable television for Rhode Island customers.
This transaction reflects the firm’s deep expertise in public utility and telecommunications regulatory matters, and our commitment to serving clients through one of the most important and consequential deals in Rhode Island’s communications business landscape.
