Mergers and Acquisition Attorneys in Elmhurst

When two companies come together in a cooperative manner, the joining process is called a merger. A merger differs from an acquisition in that an acquisition occurs when one company absorbs another. In most merger and acquisition situations, the goal is to gain assets, trade secrets, or market share that would be impossible or too expensive to create in other ways. Mergers and acquisitions require an exhaustive process of vetting and financial disclosures by each company involved, and they often take a number of months or multiple years to finalize. Some mergers and acquisitions even require approval from regulatory agencies to ensure the market is not negatively affected.

At Farooqi & Husain Law Office, we understand that the process of merging businesses or acquiring a company will include many considerations. Our experienced business law attorneys can assist you with:

• Business formation and structure of the new, post-acquisition company;
• Drafting and negotiating contracts, purchase agreements, non-disclosure agreements, and financing documents; and
• Due diligence to ensure that no unwelcome surprises derail the proceedings.
