Business Sale and Purchase briefcase

Business Sale & Purchase Agreement

Business Sale & Purchase Agreement


We have a dedicated team of professional business lawyers in Auckland that will assist you with your business acquisition or disposal.
 
When disposing of your business we will assist with providing advice and assisting with drafting and negotiating key transaction documents such as MOUs, business sale and purchase agreements, sale of shares, cession and assignment agreements, the cancellation/substitution of any security arrangements, as well as managing employee related aspects. We will also provide transactional assistance and ensure that you receive your secured funds on the settlement date.
 
When acquiring a business, or buying into an existing business we will assist with your legal due diligence, advice and assistance in negotiating the key transactional documents to protect your interests as the purchaser including assisting with securing and complying with financing requirements, restraints, assignments (including lease of premises), indemnities and warranties are in place to protect your investment.

Unlike many other business lawyers in NZ we have developed great connections to business brokers, insurance specialists, accountants, bankers, and valuers (all with unique interests in small-medium businesses) and can put you in touch with whoever you need to make it happen.

If you're looking a business law firm in Auckland with great connections and an eye for detail then you have come to the right place.
