PRACTICE AREA

Mergers & Acquisitions

A poorly planned or structured transaction cannot always be corrected after the documents are signed.

FOCUSING

Window of

opportunity

Business acquisitions have a window of opportunity to identify risks, negotiate protections and indemnities, and structure the closing in a way that leaves all parties with a clear understanding of the consequences. That window closes when the agreement is executed — or when an extension is negotiated.

We advise buyers and sellers on legal due diligence, negotiation and drafting of share or equity purchase agreements, transaction structuring, legal and statutory compliance verification, and coordination with financial and tax advisors.

We have experience in transactions between Mexican parties and in deals involving foreign buyers or sellers, including matters that require coordination with correspondent firms in other jurisdictions.
