Anyone takes a chance when purchasing a "used" anything – car, appliance, boat, home, etc. Despite all the research and due diligence, sometimes exactly what is purchased only becomes truly obvious once it's completely in the hands of the new owner.
M&A events are-in some respects-no different. But, as legal counsel during M&A efforts, you are the primary point of contact with the principal responsibility of getting the deal from start to finish smoothly and in a timely manner. Your forward path should lead to a go/no go decision based on facts and evidence.
What are some potential roadblocks to look for? In this on-demand webinar, our legal panel will address:
- What issues to be aware of during due diligence events related to IP, corporate structures, and open source software
- How do particular findings and outcomes get integrated into purchase agreements
- What you should focus on post-close
- The role of Representations & Warranty insurance for issue mitigation
