Legal support for selling a business

Legal Support When Selling a Business

It’s never too soon to ask whether you’re building a business that has real value and will appeal to a future buyer. As the famous phrase from Stephen Covey goes: “begin with the end in mind.”

The goal of entrepreneurship is to someday reap the benefits of hard work, but too often short-term needs and short-sighted actions can diminish future value.

The attorneys at Hunter Business Law include an attorney with CPA credentials, an attorney with a masters in tax, and attorneys with years of securities, and mergers and acquisitions (M&A) experience. In addition, we work with a vast community of advisors, including M&A advisors, valuation experts, financial planners, and CPAs. Together we will help you ascertain and execute short-term and long-term goals designed to achieve success (as you define it) when you are ready to sell your business.
