Buying or Seller a Business?

Drafting the agreement to closing the deal, our Corporate Business Entity Attorney and lawyers are ready to help.  Being in the Nation’s Oldest City, St. Augustine, a thriving tourist town, we routinely draft purchase and sale agreements for area businesses.  With the changes and boom in population since 2020, many local businesses have changed hands.

Considerations for the business transaction: 

• Asset Sale or Stock Purchase? Our business transaction attorneys routinely assist clients in considering the type of purchase and sale agreement that is right for the sale.  Items such as accounts payable and accounts receivable can be very important.  
• Any liens against the assets?  Ask us about lien searches when closing on a new business investment. 
• Need a note or UCC financing statement? If the deal contemplates seller financing, we can draft the note and UCC financing statement to protect the seller.
• Any intellectual property?  Our closing document package can include transfers of trademarks, domain names, telephone numbers and the other intellectual property of the business. 
• Allocation of Purchase Price? We help clients consider items such as the amount of the sale to allocate to furniture, fixtures and equipment (FFE) versus goodwill and other items.  
• Is the business space leased?  We help clients consider lease assignment implications and negotiations with landlords.  

Questions about an Employment Agreement or Non-Compete?

We can review or draft a proposed employment agreement and cover issues such as non-compete and non-solicitation.
