Business Purchase Lawyer Lenoir City, TN

Purchasing an established business can be a great investment. You take advantage of already-existing goodwill in the community, avoid the headaches of startups, and can start turning a profit fairly soon. But not every established business is a good investment. There is some risk associated with purchasing a business, and without proper preparation and legal advice, you may end up losing a significant amount of money on the transaction.

Our Lenoir City business purchase lawyer can assist with every aspect of the business transaction, including performing due diligence before purchase, reviewing the business’s outstanding debts, and conducting a market assessment to determine if purchasing it helps you achieve your financial goals. We’re here to protect you, and once we’ve determined that purchasing the business is a good idea, we can then handle the legal matters required for it to change hands.

As trained negotiators, our attorneys are often able to get a better price for the business than you could alone. We use what we learned in the due diligence period to help us get you a better deal. We also review the legal aspects of taking over the business, including changing its legal entity or name, as well as reviewing existing employment contracts. We also draw up the purchase contract or, if the other party does, carefully review it to ensure it covers all the details of our agreed-upon deal and is legally sound. We can also hold funds in escrow as the deal progresses. Once the contract is signed, we take care of legally registering the transaction and updating the state records accordingly. We protect your interests at every step.
