Business Sale and Purchase Lawyers Lawyers

If you are looking at the next stage in your business journey, you may be ready to buy a business or sell your existing company. Business sales can be a daunting prospect. However, with careful planning and review, you can improve the outcome and reduce your risk.

When buying a business’ asset or a company, prospective buyers should:

  • undertake a due diligence process by gathering information about the business on offer;
  • find out about the business’ primary assets, who owns them, and whether there are any ongoing liabilities, such as tax liabilities, should you wish to make an asset purchase;
  • identify the employees within the business and understand the key terms in their employment contracts;
  • confirm if the business premises are suitable and will remain available; and
  • ensure the business is valued correctly, and the purchase price is accurate. 

When selling a business, business owners should:

  • get relevant documentation and intellectual property registration in place;
  • prepare for a buyer to undertake due diligence;
  • have an expert lawyer draft your sales agreements; and
  • where needed, inform parties such as landlords, suppliers, and or franchisors. You may need their permission to facilitate the sale.

Buying or selling business assets in the UK can be a complicated transaction. However, LegalVision’s experienced commercial lawyers can help reduce stress and manage the associated risks across the entire process.
