Purchasing another business, selling your business, or merging with another business are some of the fastest ways to reach your goals. However, these transactions are often complex and require an understanding of various, sometimes unrelated, concepts in order to structure a deal that is rewarding in the long-term.  

Before you dive into the world of mergers and transactions (or if you already have but need guidance on navigating the process), Lerch Early attorneys Paul Alpuche and Daniel Barrera will discuss what you need to know to start to structure a deal, including:

  • Identifying what you are buying or selling and for how much

  • Differences between assets and interests to keep in mind

  • Deal related tax considerations

  • Initial negotiations and protecting confidential information

  • How to document the deal through Letters of Intent and other transaction documents

  • Post-deal Obligations and Liabilities

Paul and Daniel will also share some of their experiences, lessons learned, and common mistakes to avoid.
