Wasch Raines attorneys represented a buyer in a successful purchase of a Martin County gas station.  “As with many of our clients looking to purchase a small business, the buyer came to our firm on the verge of signing on the dotted line but a quick review of the sale documents and lease assignment revealed legal issues that would have risked the buyer’s short-term and long-term investment but for a re-negotiation of the deal,” said Adam G. Wasch.  “Our client ended up with far less risk and a much better sale price for a minimal fee.”

Wasch Raines attorneys counsel buyers and sellers of businesses and franchise companies in a variety of industries. The sale of a business or franchise comes with challenges often overlooked by parties to the transaction including commercial lease assignments, intellectual property transfers, asset purchases, and employment issues.  The identification of these issues by an attorney is cost-efficient and often saves purchasers of business entities in the short run by reducing sale prices where due diligence uncovers valuation issues and in the long run by reducing the risks of future legal issues inherent in every purchase. Wasch Raines looks for long-term relationships with small business owners and serve as legal partner by providing legal alerts and on-call service on an as-needed basis.
