Buying and Selling a Business

Business Sales and Purchases

Asset Purchases — Stock Purchases

There are two major types of business sales and purchases: asset purchases and stock purchases. At The Law Office of Patrick Reed, I assist clients in both, while protecting against potential liabilities that may arise in the future.

Personalized Services

There are different steps that must be followed in order to properly conduct your business purchase or sale. This is dependent on:

• The nature of the business you are buying or selling
• Whether you are working with a business broker
• The kinds of assets you are purchasing
• Tax considerations

At The Law Office of Patrick Reed, I tailor my services to meet the unique needs of each client. By keeping in mind these important points, I am able to help clients carefully complete their transaction and avoid potential liabilities in the future.

Once a client has purchased a business, I can help with the formation and planning of a business organization: Formation and Planning. I assist clients in choosing the most appropriate business entity, which may include filing as an LLC, LLP, S Corp, or C Corp. After that, I provide a range of services to support a business throughout its duration.

Acquiring a Franchise, Licensing and Distribution

I represent clients who are purchasing a franchise or entering into a license or distribution agreement. There are many factors to consider in franchising, licensing, and distribution, in addition to what the franchisor or licensor has presented. I can draft and review the necessary franchise agreement, license agreement, distribution agreement, and any other ancillary document involved in the process.
