What this usually involves

A sale process runs on preparation. Clean corporate records, resolved disputes and clear IP ownership shorten diligence and protect the headline price.

  • Heads of terms and exclusivity
  • Managing due diligence and disclosure
  • Negotiating warranties, indemnities and earn-outs

Common questions

Share sale or asset sale?
Sellers usually prefer a share sale for a clean break; buyers often prefer assets to leave historic liabilities behind.
How long does a sale take?
Owner-managed business sales commonly run three to six months from heads of terms to completion.
