Closings

The legal process of buying and selling a business can be complex and involves the purchase or sale of the stock and/or assets of a business. The transfer can be structured as an acquisition or as a merger. Acquisitions may be asset purchases or stock purchases where the buyer purchases the business as stock and actually takes over the ongoing concern of the business, as opposed to just buying the merchandise and equipment. A merger can share many characteristics of an asset purchase and a stock purchase, but at the completion of the transaction the two businesses are combined as one. Our attorneys can provide you with the advice and documents necessary to complete such transfers, as well as conduct any real estate closings associated with the business transfers.
