Purchasing a business is a major legal transaction that demands careful attention to detail. Beyond negotiating a price, buyers must understand existing contracts, employee obligations, lease terms, supplier agreements, and potential liabilities hidden within the business structure. Without thorough legal review, it’s easy to inherit problems that impact profitability and long-term stability.
