How Can Our Selling a Business Lawyers in Shellharbour Help?

A business sale often brings a mix of operational, financial, and legal steps that need to align for the transaction to move forward without setbacks. We assist clients throughout the entire process, working alongside accountants and other advisers to identify any potential roadblocks well before settlement.


Our Shellharbour business lawyers manage all aspects of the transaction, including the transfer of physical property like plant and equipment, intellectual property such as brand assets, and key agreements like leases, supplier contracts, and licences. Each element must be correctly assigned or transferred to the new owner to avoid post-sale issues.


We work to simplify the handover process and reduce the risk of last-minute problems, helping you secure terms that meet your commercial objectives and bring your business transition to a successful close.


This can include:


  • Advising on the terms of your business broker’s agreement
  • Preparing non-disclosure/confidentiality agreements to protect your confidential information
  • Advising on any existing contracts that might be in jeopardy as a result of a sale
  • Managing legal due diligence
  • Preparing and negotiating the sale agreement
  • Negotiating the assignment of the lease of your business premises
  • Advising on employees and transfer of employment.
