Sale of Business Contract
Our expert business lawyers have experience acting for both the seller of a business and buyer of a business. If you are a buyer our solicitors will review and advise on the sale of business contract, and provide a thorough listing of the assets both intangible and tangible as well as the obligations and liabilities that are being passed on to you through the sale. Often, key contracts (such as supplier contracts governing critical supply arrangements and agency agreements), key staff, and imperative intellectual property (such as the website, copyright on documentation, and client database) are missed.
If you are a seller, our team will assist with the compilation of a sale of business contract and ensure your liabilities and warranties are at a minimum.
