Acquisitions, Disposals and Mergers

As your business grows and changes, you may wish to exploit opportunities to acquire or merge with other businesses, or to sell all or part of your existing business. We will work pragmatically and proactively with you to ensure your deal meets all of your acquisition, growth and realisation objectives.

In practical terms, we can help you with that process, from providing advice on the right ownership structure for your particular needs, to the drafting and negotiation of share or business asset sale agreements with appropriate warranties, indemnities and any appropriate restrictive covenants.

If you are buying the shares or assets of a business, we can carry out detailed due diligence for you to ensure that you are fully aware of all relevant circumstances surrounding the business you are acquiring, that you are aware of all risk, and that you are paying the correct price. If you are selling your business, we can assist you to ensure that your exposure under any business warranties is limited as far as possible.
