Mergers & Acquisitions
Turn your hard work into a clean, confident exit.
Selling your business is more than a transaction—it’s the culmination of years of effort. Whether you're handing it off to a new owner, merging with another company, or passing it to key employees, the process involves legal, financial, and emotional complexity.
At Auxo Law, we guide business owners through the full sale process—from early discussions and deal structuring to contract negotiation and closing. Our goal is to make your exit smooth, strategic, and well-protected.
We Handle:
Letter of Intent (LOI) negotiation – Set the foundation for the deal with clear terms, timelines, and exclusivity provisions
Drafting and negotiating purchase agreements – Whether it’s an Asset Purchase Agreement (APA) or Stock/Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (SPA/MIPA), we ensure your rights are protected and risks minimized
Disclosure schedules and seller representations – Clarify what’s included in the deal and limit your liability
Coordinating with CPAs, brokers, and advisors – Ensure legal, tax, and business planning efforts are aligned
Employee transition planning – Address employment contracts, benefits, and buyer obligations
Closing and post-closing support – Oversee final signatures, funds transfer, and any escrow or holdback provisions
Why Legal Guidance Matters:
A poorly structured sale can expose you to personal liability, tax consequences, or post-closing disputes
Agreements must be tailored to your business, industry, and the specific structure of your deal
Legal coordination can significantly reduce delays and increase your leverage during negotiations
We help you understand the risks—and how to limit them
You focus on the transition—we’ll focus on the legal lift.
Auxo Law is here to ensure your sale is handled professionally, efficiently, and with your future in mind.
Review the economics behind the headline price—cash at closing, seller notes, earnouts, escrows and working capital—plus exclusivity and timing. Those terms carry into the purchase agreement.
It depends on taxes, liabilities, contracts and what the buyer will accept. Sellers often prefer equity sales and buyers often prefer asset purchases, so structure is negotiated early.
Timelines vary widely. Preparation, diligence, financing and negotiation of the purchase agreement all affect how long it takes to reach closing.
