We’ve represented clients in merger, consolidation, tender offer, and, most frequently, acquisition of assets. We provide counsel in the pre-negotiation, negotiation, and transactional stages of the process with emphasis upon minimizing risk and, whenever possible, maintaining a collegial atmosphere as the parties and counsel work toward finalization of the deal.
We’ll help you set the stage for discussion and negotiation by providing protection of your sensitive and proprietary information through a Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure Agreement, assist in structuring a Letter of Intent, if desirable, and work with counsel on the other side in the finalization of the transactional and contract documents. Such documents are usually complex, consume the greater portion of the lawyer’s time in M&A projects and require both experience and a level of substantive understanding of the law. We’ll coordinate and work with, or help you find, your accounting and business valuation experts and help you to analyze and organize due diligence. Here, as in all areas of our practice, we pride ourselves on detail, accuracy, advocacy, and problem prevention.
