What this usually involves
Buyers pay for future profit but inherit past problems. Legal due diligence exists to price and, where possible, contract out of that history.
- Legal due diligence across contracts, people and property
- Negotiating the sale and purchase agreement
- Completion, escrow and post-completion integration
Common questions
- What protections should a buyer insist on?
- Warranties, specific indemnities for known risks, restrictive covenants and often a retention or deferred consideration.
- Do employees transfer?
- On an asset purchase, TUPE usually transfers employees automatically with their existing terms.
