Legal Counsel For Merging, Acquiring Or Selling A Business In Oklahoma

The idea of merging your business with another one or buying or selling a business may be appealing based on anticipated benefits of either type of transaction. However, we would caution you to “Look before you leap.” Before taking irreversible actions, get legal counsel to increase the likelihood of success overall.

At Brydie & Associates, PLLC, in Tulsa, we help clients understand what is at stake and how to proceed with a business deal cautiously and efficiently. Let us help you weigh the risks and benefits, and create a sensible, viable plan of action.

Considerations You May Have And Services You Will Need

For any type of business, we can help you determine whether a plan to merge is viable and likely beneficial. Our attorneys offer services relevant to all types of mergers and acquisitions, including:

• Strategic business plan design
• Evaluation of territorial and client list issues
• Due diligence reviews, including inventorying profit and loss statements, balance sheets, licenses, leases, intellectual property and any pending litigation
• Clarification of which assets of a business will be acquired by another in a merger or sale
• Drafting buy, sell or merge proposals and other documents

These are a few examples of the factors we will help you consider when you are pondering the purchase, sale or merging of your business. If you entrust your hoped-for transaction to us, we will help you determine whether you need – and can verify – the approval of investors, partners and/or shareholders.

If you are considering merging two businesses with differing regulatory requirements, you may want to reconsider. Oklahoma has a limited number of certain business licenses available, but existing licenses can often be transferred to new owners.

As the owner of a licensed business, instead of merging it with another company, you may want to explore selling the business and completing a proper transfer of the license to a new owner. The best approach will depend on your specific objectives. A business law attorney’s review of your goals can help you determine the right path forward. At Brydie & Associates, PLLC, we can guide you through all necessary steps efficiently and effectively.
