Mergers, Acquisitions and Disposals

With a team of experienced mergers and acquisitions lawyers, Ramsdens understands that deciding to buy or sell a business can initially appear daunting and complex, requiring lots of information in the early stages.

Advising business owners across a wide range of transactions, we recognise the importance of timely advice in order to minimise issues and achieve a fast and effective transition of ownership.

Our team of mergers and acquisitions lawyers can advise and guide you on all aspects of a potential acquisition or disposal, including preparing confidentiality agreements, heads of terms, and providing guidance on legal due diligence and warranties, indemnities, whilst also negotiating with the buyer’s or seller’s solicitors.

Our corporate and commercial team are experts in both domestic and cross-border transactions, with broad experience in many sectors of industry, and across a range of business scales from micro businesses to large corporates.

We actively consider the wider implications of transactions and work closely with banks and accountants in addition to enlisting the help of our estate planning, property and employment teams to protect every aspect of your business before, during and after your transaction.

Extensively Experienced Team

Our team boasts extensive experience and expertise. This allows us to confidently guide you through the entire process, from initial consultation to successful completion. We act as your trusted advisor throughout, minimising your stress and maximising your success.
