Navigate your company’s sale or acquisition with experienced, deal-tested counsel.
We represent business owners and buyers through the full M&A lifecycle—from initial term sheet to closing. Whether you’re selling your company, acquiring a competitor, or entering a strategic transaction, we act as your dedicated deal counsel—protecting your interests, managing complexity, and ensuring your transaction moves smoothly from diligence to close.
This service is ideal for clients who are negotiating a sale or acquisition but don’t yet know which deal structure—asset sale, stock sale, or merger—best fits their goals. We provide the strategic and legal guidance necessary to evaluate options, develop the right structure, and execute the transaction efficiently.
We handle the full scope of legal, strategic, and procedural work required in a sale or acquisition. That includes transaction planning, diligence coordination, negotiation strategy, and drafting and closing all key agreements. Throughout the process, we collaborate closely with your financial advisors, tax professionals, and opposing counsel to keep momentum and protect value.

Hourly
Due to the unpredictable nature and complexity of M&A transactions, we traditionally operate on an hourly basis, making it easy to get started with a $5,000 replenishing retainer. While total costs vary by structure and deal size, most full-scope transactions range between $60,000–$70,000.
Flat Fee
For clients who prefer predictability, we also offer a flat fee of $70,000. This option provides a defined project boundary and deliverables, with payments structured as follows:
- 50% payable upon engagement
- 25% payable four (4) weeks from engagement
- 25% payable upon closing
This structure allows clients to budget confidently while securing the resources necessary to complete complex equity transactions efficiently and effectively.
