Whether or not your business is a company or a formal partnership and even if your business is unincorporated, your business plan will include routes to grow your business organically, by increasing sales and expanding operations. However, inorganic growth, through mergers, demergers, acquisitions and sales are also good ways to grow your business, as well as providing you with a sound exit-strategy.

At Latimer Lee, our merger and acquisition solicitors have experience of dealing with all sizes of domestic and cross-border mergers and acquisitions, including the buying and selling of businesses with a valuation of hundreds of millions of pounds.

If you are buying or merging a business or its assets, we can run due diligence on your potential targets and we have the expertise to run online data rooms. If you are demerging or selling a business or its assets, we can help you package your business and prepare presentations for potential buyers.

In addition, on any transaction, we can prepare all the transactional documentation and our Solicitors can steer the merger or acquisition from start to finish, including project management of the entire process across multiple jurisdictions. At Latimer Lee, we also have experience of post-merger integration and we are happy to advise on these matters.
