Oswald & Yap Law – Orange County Business Lawyers

Mergers & Acquisitions

Our attorneys have extensive experience in the field of mergers and acquisitions, including transactions as large as the merger of a private company into a public company and as small as the private sale of a business division.  Our familiarity with so many varied transactions allows us to anticipate and identify any potential issues in a deal so we can provide solutions early in the transaction saving you time and money.

Based on our experience, our attorneys can provide detailed advice as to how best to structure a change-of-control transaction, whether your company is the buyer or seller, surviving corporation or the corporation being absorbed. We work extensively with investment bankers, business brokerages, and valuation experts to maximize your company’s value.

A successful merger or acquisition requires a multidisciplinary approach involving several areas of law, including corporate, securities, tax, and real estate law.  Our attorneys have strengths in all of these areas and thus we are able to handle all aspects of any transaction making for a more efficient process.

Our experience in the mergers and acquisitions field includes:

  • Asset sales
  • Stock purchases
  • Mergers with both public and private companies
  • Leveraged buy-outs
  • Supermajority voting provisions and the adoption of poison pills
  • Shareholder agreements and other specific by law articles of incorporation provisions
  • Proxy contests, hostile or friendly
