For Businesses Buying and Selling

We represent both buyers and sellers in a wide range of M&A transactions, from small business acquisitions to complex corporate mergers involving multiple jurisdictions. Our priority is ensuring your transaction is structured and executed efficiently while safeguarding your interests every step of the way. We advise businesses on strategic considerations, navigate complex regulatory requirements, and strive to secure favorable terms that maximize value.

Due Diligence

A thorough due diligence investigation is the foundation of any successful M&A transaction. We conduct comprehensive legal due diligence to identify potential risks and liabilities, ensuring you have a clear understanding of the target company’s financial health, legal compliance, intellectual property, and operational risks. Our detailed reports provide critical insights, allowing you to make informed decisions and avoid costly mistakes. We analyze contracts, litigation history, financial records, and regulatory compliance documentation to uncover hidden issues that could impact the value and success of the transaction.

Negotiation and Structuring

We are skilled negotiators and strategists adept at structuring complex transactions to achieve your desired outcomes. We work closely with you to develop a negotiation strategy that protects your interests and maximizes your value, taking into account market conditions, regulatory requirements, and your long-term business goals. Our real-world experience in a wide range of M&A transactions allows us to anticipate and proactively address potential challenges, ensuring a smooth and successful negotiation process. We advise on deal structures, tax implications, and potential financing options, working to optimize the terms for our clients.

Drafting and Reviewing Agreements

The purchase agreement is the most essential document in an M&A transaction. Our attorneys meticulously draft and review purchase agreements, merger agreements, asset purchase agreements, and related documents to ensure they accurately reflect the terms of the deal and protect your legal rights.

We focus on clarity and enforceability, minimizing the risk of future disputes. Our thorough approach includes careful consideration of representations and warranties, indemnification provisions, and closing conditions, providing a solid foundation for a successful outcome. We also handle ancillary documents, such as employment agreements, non-compete agreements, and transition service agreements.

Closing the Transaction

We manage all aspects of the closing process, ensuring a smooth and efficient transfer of ownership. To ensure a seamless closing, we coordinate with all parties involved, including accountants, financial advisors, and other legal counsel. Our proactive approach minimizes delays and potential roadblocks, allowing you to focus on the next chapter of your business. We prepare and file all necessary closing documents, coordinate escrow arrangements, and handle post-closing adjustments. We can handle most closings remotely, saving you valuable time and money.

Post-Closing Integration

Our services extend beyond the closing. We assist with post-closing integration matters, such as resolving disputes, enforcing indemnification claims, and ensuring a smooth transition for employees and customers. We provide ongoing legal support to help you navigate the challenges of integrating acquired businesses and achieving your strategic objectives. Our goal is to ensure a successful long-term partnership, fostering continued growth and maximizing the value of the transaction.

Investor Support

We represent investors in private equity deals, venture capital investments, and other M&A transactions. We help investors identify promising opportunities, conduct due diligence, and negotiate favorable terms. We also advise on regulatory compliance, corporate governance, and exit strategies, providing a full range of legal services to support your investment goals.

Common M&A Issues We Handle

M&A transactions can be complex, and disputes can arise even after the deal is closed. We have extensive experience resolving M&A disputes, ensuring our clients' interests are fiercely protected. We understand the financial and operational impacts these disputes can cause, and we are dedicated to finding swift and favorable resolutions.

Breach of Contract

Breach of contract disputes arise when one party fails to fulfill its obligations under the purchase agreement. This can include failure to deliver assets, failure to meet revenue targets, or misrepresentation of financial information. We represent clients in breach of contract claims, seeking damages and injunctive relief to enforce their contractual rights.

Earnout Disputes

Earnout disputes occur when there is disagreement over the calculation or payment of earnout provisions in the purchase agreement. These provisions often tie a portion of the purchase price to the future performance of the acquired business. We represent clients in earnout disputes, helping them achieve a fair resolution based on the agreement's terms and the business's actual performance.

Indemnification Claims

Indemnification claims arise when one party seeks to recover losses due to a breach of the purchase agreement's representations and warranties. We represent clients in indemnification claims, helping them obtain compensation for losses resulting from inaccurate or misleading information provided by the other party.

Fraud Allegations

Fraud allegations involve claims that one party intentionally misrepresented material information to induce the other to enter the M&A transaction. We represent clients in fraud cases, seeking damages and other remedies to address fraud.

The M&A Process: A Step-by-Step Guide

Understanding the M&A process can help you prepare for a transaction and make informed decisions. Here's a simplified overview of the key steps:

Initial Consultation

The M&A process begins with an initial consultation to discuss your goals, objectives, and business needs. During this consultation, we'll evaluate your situation, discuss your options, and provide you with a clear understanding of the legal and business implications of the transaction.

Letter of Intent (LOI)

If both parties are interested in proceeding with the transaction, they typically enter into a Letter of Intent (LOI). The LOI outlines the key terms of the proposed deal, such as the purchase price, payment terms, and closing date. While not legally binding in its entirety, the LOI sets the framework for further negotiations and provides a roadmap for the transaction.

Due Diligence

The next step is due diligence, where the buyer conducts a thorough investigation of the target company. This involves reviewing financial statements, contracts, intellectual property, and other relevant information to assess the target company’s value and identify potential risks.
