BUSINESS SALES/TRANSACTIONS OFFERINGS
Providing a diagnostic report at any stage of the process
It is never too soon to begin creating a roadmap for a smooth and successful transaction. Early in the process, there is much that can be done to review business operations/risk management/employment and HR matters that can have a direct impact on the success of a future transaction. Identifying and being proactive with any potential challenges at the infancy of a transaction often allows for a transaction to be far more profitable and successful than addressing issues in the midst of a negotiation or while preparing for a closing.
Assisting with the formation of transaction terms
The recipe for every good transaction is a clear and concise understanding of the key deal points between the parties. Prior to putting pen to paper, it is important for the principals to have a “meeting of the minds” as far as what each side expects from a particular transaction and how to best make that happen through the legal process. We focus on the overall goals of a client and how the transaction terms can assist in supporting those goals.
Drafting and negotiating agreements
From a simple letter of intent to complex purchase agreements, Albee law can assist in identifying terms, negotiating and drafting agreements to protect a client’s best interests. Advocating for clear and concise language in agreements allows for each side to understand and rely upon an agreed roadmap of how the transaction will close and how each party will conduct itself following the closing.
Transaction Closing and Post Transaction and Compliance Matters
Representing a client through the closing process on a business transaction is one of the most rewarding moments for the attorneys at Albee Law. We are excited to assist clients in closing on transactions and to witness the benefits of business growth, new opportunities, or simply the realization of a well-earned retirement that goes along with the sale of a business. We also strive to remain a valuable asset to clients post-closing and to assist clients in complying with the terms of the agreements and any post-closing obligations.
