Selling Your Business? Get an Honest Deal with Our Support.

Thinking about selling your California business within a few years? Start getting your business ready now with our support.

If you decide it’s time to move on from your business within the next few years, Adams Corporate Law can help you prepare your business now to assure a smooth transaction and support an attractive sale price. We can support you through every step of the process. We have decades of experience in California corporate transactions, which includes assisting business sellers with important preparations that can help them get the best possible deal.

Adams Corporate Law can help you arrange necessary details that can strengthen your ability to sell a company on your terms. Any buyer will expect to find a business with its legal house in order. If your primary assets are not legally owned and protected, or if there are loose ends with potential liabilities, this will detract from a buyer’s interest in buying your California business and will have a negative impact on pricing.

Understanding the Legal Aspects of Selling Your Business

Here are some key legal considerations to keep in mind when selling your business:

  • Contracts and Agreements: Ensure all contracts are reviewed and updated to reflect the terms of the sale.
  • Due Diligence: Be prepared for the buyer's due diligence process, which involves a thorough examination of your business's financials, operations, and legal standing.
  • Tax Implications: Understand the tax consequences of the sale to avoid unexpected liabilities.
  • Intellectual Property: Protect your intellectual property rights and ensure they are properly transferred to the new owner.
  • Employee Considerations: Plan for how the sale will impact your employees, including potential changes in employment contracts or benefits.

How Adams Corporate Law, Inc. Can Help You Prepare to Sell

Buyers, in most cases, purchase a business because something about it will add value to what they already own. That value can amount to assets that the selling company owns, or it may simply be the value of eliminating a competitor.

In either case, the seller can have the advantage in negotiations if they have a complete corporate book, all permits and licenses in place, all contracts signed with protective provisions in place, and with all assets and intellectual property protected and confirmed owned by the business with the right to transfer and sell. Any buyer will conduct due diligence on your business and you do not want them to uncover problems during the transaction. Let Adams Corporate Law conduct that due diligence now, before you are ready to sell, when you still have plenty of time to address any deficiencies.

If you’re planning an exit strategy for your business, reach out to Adams Corporate Law for help preparing your California business for sale.
