After years of work in a business, it can be quite profitable to sell it. Being acquired by a larger company is something that many hope for. However, selling a business is rarely a simple affair. Parties to the purchase of a business must comply with Federal and New Jersey laws that govern mergers, acquisitions, negotiations and securities exchanges.
How Do I Sell a Business?
The initial step in selling an Union business is soliciting an offer. A purchase agent can help you find prospective buyers, as well as advise you concerning whether offers that you receive are worth consideration. The purchaser might want financial records to be updated in accordance with New Jersey and Federal law. This might be required by law in some cases, and besides, it always helps in determining the correct value for the rights you are selling. As an agreement for the purchase is reached, normally a formal contract will be written. It is important to review such documents before they are signed so that all aspects of the agreement are presented properly.
What Will I Give Up in the Business?
Essentially, the sale of a business entails the passing of a right known as ?control?. With control of a business, a party might direct its operations and dispose of its property as it sees fit. The right of control can be separated easily from the business, and this often leads the buyers in Union to be less interested in other rights within the company. In fact, buyers regularly leave other rights, such as the right to future earnings, with the sellers so that they can acquire control more cheaply. These particularities make negotiations essential, during which each party should use the opportunity to voice their intentions and concerns.
How Can an Attorney Help?
The law in New Jersey places certain demands on parties who want to sell a business. Lawyers in Union are qualified to advise you in this process and ensure that the sale is in compliance with the law.
Another lawyer said my case would take weeks of work and require thousands of dollars of research. Howard pointed to a very fundamental clause in the contract, wrote a letter to termite the contract and dealt with all responses from the opposing parties attorney. Very cut and dry for a fraction of the fees. Highly recommended.
An excellent Attorney with a keen legal mind. He is attentive, responsive and his fees very reasonable!
