Common Concerns During Business Transactions
- Should you buy the assets of the business or the business entity itself?
- Can you assume the seller’s lease and, if so, under what terms?
- Are there any outstanding contracts or liabilities associated with the business, and will the buyer or seller be responsible for those items?
- What is the status of the business’s employees or independent contractors? Are there any contracts or outstanding issues that need attention in this regard?
Both parties should obtain indemnities from each other to ensure that they are fully protected from the acts of each other before and after the closing these are only a few items to consider in a purchase/sale transaction. Still, they are critically important in negotiating the terms of the transaction and how the final transaction is structured.
