Clients look to us for assistance in buying and selling companies, divisions, assets groups and other customary M&A transactions. These have ranged from the very large to small transactions. Our M&A practice stresses the following:
Understand the client’s reasons for pursuing the transaction and achieve the goals of the clients.
Be aware of current trends in M&A and what contract provisions were in other recent deals.
Offer ideas and suggestions to make the deal better.
Whether buyer or seller, minimize the long-term risks to the client.
Negotiate in a manner that protects the client’s interests but acknowledges the reasonable goals of the other party.
Identify management’s top priorities in negotiating the purchase or sale contract and know where to be flexible.
Work with management, accountants and other counsel to make the transaction work from the perspectives of tax, labor law, risk management and other factors.
Work efficiently to complete the transaction on schedule.
