The Commercial Solicitors at Bennetts Legal deal with disposals and acquisitions of companies on a daily basis and we take the time to explain each step on the way to completion, to ensure you are fully aware of what you are buying and your obligations going forward.
We would be happy to offer fixed fees during the various stages upon consultation.
Commercial Solicitors will consider issues such as:
- Share sale or asset sale?
- Disclosure letters – what needs to be disclosed and why?
- Warranties – what protections should you offer and receive?
- Due Diligence – What will be looked at? What do you need to know? What should your accountant review?
- Asset and liability evaluation – Is the deal right for you?
- Capital gains tax consequences – We are one of the few law firms with a Chartered Tax Advisor in our team and able to offer support to your accountants and guidance to you if required by your accountants.
