Moreover, how both parties (sellers and buyers) can feel like the conclusion is mutually beneficial. Steve speaks with David Barrett, Executive Partner at Faegre Drinker Biddle & Reath, LLP. They discuss hang-ups and how to avoid the biggest obstacle – the element of surprise. As well as, how important it is to be clear on expectations. They speak to the Do’s and Don’ts, what to look for, and pitfalls for a deal from the letter of intent, purchase agreements, and life after the sale. They also stress how the structure of a transaction can affect how smoothly the sales goes which can include things like how sellers can protect their employees. Having an experienced team around you to help is essential. Their advice… be organized and be ready.
