Buying a Business

Rather than starting a business, you may want to buy an existing or franchise or business.

There are issues to consider when buying a business, which includes:

• Protecting the revenue streams of the business, if the current revenue the business you are buying is a key factor in why you want to purchase the business
• Licensing and permits
• Confidentiality agreements
• Zoning requirements
• Business financial statements and past tax returns of the business
• Business records, loans, security agreements, governing documents and contracts
• Sales contract
• Employee contracts
• Any former business liabilities and specification of current assets to be transferred
• Any business restructuring
  Potential lawsuits

Having a Colorado business lawyer handle all the legal aspects of your business purchase can ensure your acquisition goes smoothly. Baker Law Group’s business attorneys are experienced and can protect you with the various aspects and pitfalls of purchasing a business in Colorado.

Selling a Business

Selling your business is complex and requires expert preparation to get the highest return on your investment.

Items to consider before listing or selling your business are:

• Make sure your financial and legal records are in order
• Have accurate and detailed Return on Assets (ROA) for a prospective buyer
• Fix any unresolved governance and contractual related to the assets and liabilities of the business
• Consider options and alternatives to an outright sale
• Have a value of intangible goodwill documented
• Have a skilled lawyer to negotiate the best deal and maximize proceeds from the sale.
