Our expertise with buying and selling businesses includes:

• Management buy-outs and management buy-ins

Whether you are seeking to acquire or dispose of a business or business assets, it is essential to take the right advice and make sure every detail is fully considered and accounted for. This not only protects your investment, it also makes sure your liabilities are clearly defined and any legal risks minimised.

Avoiding the pitfalls

We’ve seen many transactions fail because of a failure to carry out due diligence or to agree the key elements of a business. All of these shortfalls are avoidable and from the outset we’ll help you establish:

• The motivations of the potential buyer and seller
• The type of sale/acquisition
• Confidentiality and exclusivity
• Heads of agreement
• Due diligence

Our commercial law solicitors have many years of experience in buying and selling businesses, so we can provide seasoned advice and clear guidance on every part of the process. We can make sure you get the right deal for your commercial interests, allowing you to make the most of the opportunities available to you.
