Mergers & Acquisitions

New Jersey Mergers and Acquisitions Attorneys

Mergers and acquisitions can be an important tool for both the acquiring company to diversify its business portfolio, as well as stakeholders for the acquired company as an exit strategy. These transactions, however, can raise complicated legal questions which can prove challenging to tackle. Should there be an earn-out? What’s the best way to structure the transaction?

Since mergers and acquisitions in the State of New Jersey can be extremely complex and require a significant amount of legal guidance, both buyers and sellers need a legal advocate who will diligently protect their rights and help ensure the transitional phase of mergers and acquisitions is timely, legal, and fair.

Property and Assets

Mergers and acquisitions entail much more than just physical property and assets. Shareholder approval may be required before you can finalize any potential deal. Stock options need negotiating. The choices for shareholders who disapprove of the merger or acquisition also need to be outlined. The fate of intellectual property has to be addressed and outlined in contracts, and the future of financial accounts and who will take on any liabilities and debts of either business needs to be determined. You’ll need an experienced attorney for attention and legal protection to what will become of your old business name. The same is true for your new business name, which needs approval and proper legal documentation.

When a merger or acquisition enjoys the complete cooperation of all parties involved, the process can be handled in a much more efficient manner. Both parties can agree to the terms of contracts and feel secure in the outcome. However, there may be times when contention holds up the process and requires the skills of an experienced negotiator to reach a favorable resolution for all parties involved. The high-value of some mergers and acquisitions in New Jersey also heightens the necessity of a legal advocate who will fight for their client’s best interest.
