Business Purchases & Sales / Mergers & Acquisitions

Whether you're acquiring a business, selling your company, or preparing for investment, our firm provides end-to-end legal guidance tailored to your goals. We represent clients across Ontario in asset and share purchases, helping entrepreneurs, corporations, and investors navigate transactions with clarity and confidence.

Our M&A services include:

1. Strategic Planning & Letter of Intent (LOI):
We begin by understanding your objectives and structuring a Letter of Intent that reflects your priorities while preserving leverage. Whether you're buying or selling, we’ll ensure the LOI includes key protections, timelines, and negotiation points to minimize surprises down the line.

2. Due Diligence Coordination:
We provide customized due diligence checklists, coordinate with accountants and other advisors, and review financials, contracts, liabilities, and regulatory issues. Our goal is to identify risks early—and resolve them before they become roadblocks.

3. Drafting & Negotiation of Agreements:
We draft and negotiate share purchase agreements (SPA), asset purchase agreements (APA), and hybrid structures. Our agreements are tailored, not templated—designed to manage liabilities, allocate risk, and reflect the deal's true commercial intent.

4. Ancillary Agreements & Lease Transfers:
From employment agreements and non-competes to lease assignments and IP transfers, we manage the full suite of closing deliverables. We work with landlords, franchisors, and regulators to facilitate seamless transitions.

5. Closing & Post-Closing Support:
We prepare closing agendas, resolutions, escrow agreements, and closing certificates. Post-closing, we assist with filings, transition obligations, and integration matters—ensuring no detail is missed.

Why work with us?

We’ve advised on national M&A deals, cross-border acquisitions, and small business transactions—and that range sets us apart. Whether it’s a $50K purchase or a multi-million-dollar sale, we bring the same strategic thinking, risk management, and practical insight to every deal.

Our clients appreciate clear advice, smart negotiation, and our ability to spot issues before they escalate. We don’t just “paper the deal”—we focus on protecting your long-term interests and maximizing value.

We offer flexible pricing, quick turnaround for fast-moving deals, and tailored guidance to match your goals—whether you’re buying your first business or selling a seasoned operation.
