What does the M&A process typically involve?
A typical transaction involves initial structuring advice, due diligence investigation, negotiation of purchase terms, drafting of sale agreements, regulatory approvals (if required), completion, and post-settlement integration. We provide end-to-end support at each stage.
How long does a merger or acquisition usually take?
Timelines vary significantly depending on complexity, regulatory requirements, and negotiation dynamics. A straightforward business acquisition may take 2–3 months, while larger or regulated transactions can take 6–12 months or longer.
What is due diligence and why is it important?
Due diligence is a comprehensive investigation of the target business -reviewing its contracts, financial position, compliance history, litigation exposure, IP, employees, and more. It identifies risks and informs your decision on price, structure, and terms.
Do I need FIRB approval for my acquisition?
If the buyer is a foreign person (as defined under the Foreign Acquisitions and Takeovers Act), FIRB approval may be required depending on the value and nature of the acquisition. We assess your FIRB obligations early and manage the approval process alongside the broader transaction.
Can you help with selling my business?
Yes. We advise vendors on sale structure, information memoranda, confidentiality agreements, due diligence management, sale agreement negotiation, and post-completion obligations -ensuring you achieve the best possible outcome from your exit.
