01  //  WHAT WE HANDLE

Four kinds of deal. One partner across all of them.

Sell-side

You built it, and now you are handing it on. We run the process so the terms, the earn-out and the representations hold the value you negotiated.

Buy-side

Diligence that surfaces what matters, structure that defines exactly what you take on, and a purchase agreement written for the business you are actually buying.

Cross-border

US buyers acquiring in Latin America, LATAM founders selling into the US. Two legal systems, one firm, one point of contact who speaks both.

Post-close

Earn-out reviews, integration, working-capital true-ups and escrow releases — the work that continues after signing, given the same attention as the deal itself.

02  //  HOW WE WORK

Senior attention, from the first call to the last signature.

A partner who knows your sector, is reachable directly, and stays with the transaction from the opening conversation through to closing.

Partner-led, start to finish

The person on your first call is the person negotiating your purchase agreement.

Scope and fees agreed upfront

Priced per matter wherever possible, confirmed in writing before we begin.

Cross-border within one firm

The United States and Latin America handled by attorneys you will actually meet and work with.

Both sides of the table

Buy-side and sell-side experience tells us which points carry real weight and which can be conceded.

03  //  HOW IT GOES

From first call to closing.

01

A confidential call

Thirty minutes. What you are selling or buying, where you are in the process, and what matters most to you. No charge.

02

Structure and scope

We tell you how the deal should be structured, what it will take, and what it will cost. In writing.

03

Diligence and drafting

We run diligence, draft the agreement, and flag the terms that actually move money.

04

Negotiate and close

A partner at the table. Through signing, escrow and the post-close items nobody plans for.

05  //  BEFORE YOU CALL

The questions we get in the first ten minutes.

If yours is not here, ask it on the call. There is no charge for the first conversation and no obligation after it.

A

How much does an M&A engagement cost?

It depends on size and complexity, and we scope it before we begin. For most lower-middle-market transactions we can give you a fixed range at the end of the first call, and we will say candidly if a different approach would serve you better.

B

Our deal is under $10M. Are we too small?

Not at all. A significant share of our work sits between $2M and $50M — the range where the outcome is most personal to the people involved and senior attention matters most.

C

We already have a corporate lawyer. Why you?

Corporate counsel and transaction counsel are different disciplines. We are frequently engaged alongside an existing adviser purely for the deal, then return the relationship after closing.

D

Can you handle a deal across the US and Latin America?

Yes — it is a large part of what we do. Formation, tax structure, IP assignment and regulatory approvals on both sides, handled inside the firm rather than referred out.

START HERE

Tell us about the deal.

A partner reads every one of these. You will hear back within one business day with a time to talk — or a candid note if another firm would serve you better.
