Mergers and Acquisitions Attorneys

How to Proceed with Mergers & Acquisitions in San Jose

Strategy Law attorneys have worked in a wide variety of mergers and acquisitions, and have represented both acquirers and target companies in a wide range of transactions. From sales of private companies to other private companies and private equity firms, and sales of private companies to publicly-held companies, our attorneys have the knowledge and expertise to tailor legal solutions to your unique needs. We have worked with stockholder groups ranging from a single individual to those involving successive rounds of institutional investors and large numbers of stock option holders and stockholders. We have also worked as U.S. counsel in a number of cross-border transactions.

Strategy Law attorneys believe that the most successful deals are those that follow methodical planning. For companies that desire to sell, we can assist in organizing corporate documentation and contracts so that inevitable diligence requests from a potential acquirer can be handled quickly and efficiently, and shortfalls in documentation, particularly in corporate governance, can be resolved. For acquirers, we conduct thorough due diligence reviews to identify potential risks and liabilities, ensuring that our clients enter into transactions with full transparency and confidence.

Once a deal commences, Strategy Law attorneys can assist in all facets of documentation. From the initial negotiations of an NDA, a letter of intent, or a memorandum of understanding, to creating and reviewing a purchase or sale agreement, to coordinating third-party consents, regulatory approvals, and closing matters, Strategy Law assists clients in preparing and negotiating the necessary documentation. Our attorneys have also worked with the various mechanisms involved in any acquisition transaction, from working capital adjustments and holdbacks to earn-outs and non-competition covenants.

At Strategy Law, we understand that successful M&A transactions require collaboration and coordination. We work closely with financial advisors, accountants, tax advisors, and other professionals and can provide referrals to assist companies in the merger and acquisition process.
