Starting out a new venture is risky, and a good way to mitigate some of that risk is to purchase an existing business rather than growing one from the ground up. However, due diligence is critical for anyone looking to acquire an existing entity and the associated brand, assets, or real property. A trusted and experienced lawyer will ensure their client is protected from legal, tax or reputational risks through careful review of all facets of a purchase. We support clients thoroughly evaluate a prospective business, assess their options, make sure they pay a fair price, and successfully grow their new venture.
