Rather than starting a business, perhaps you are considering buying an existing business, or have an established business you are considering selling. Lavelle Law, Ltd. has vast experience in transactions of this nature across many industries including home health care. Our experts will work to represent your corporate entity, as well as you individually.

In a purchase, through a rigorous due diligence process we can work to maximize the value of the transaction for you. We will perform a thorough review to be sure that the entity you are buying is free from any liens and to identify any potential liabilities that could ultimately weaken or destroy the asset you acquire. Finally, we will examine the assets to verify their value. Simply put, we will protect your investment.

If you are selling, our financial experts can structure terms to maximize the proceeds from the sale while managing your tax liability. In addition, we will work to secure your post-sale position to limit your personal obligations to the purchaser after closing. Common strategies may involve retaining a security interest in the assets sold, executing a promissory note, personal guaranty and mortgage in any property owned by the purchaser, or simply negotiating a lump sum payment for the purchase.
