2. Due Diligence

Our due diligence process ensures you know exactly what you’re buying. We review the target company’s:

  • Ownership and corporate structure
  • Liens and encumbrances
  • Existing contracts and leases
  • Litigation risks or tax liabilities

By uncovering potential issues early, we help you avoid costly surprises after the transaction closes.

3. Deal Structuring

The structure of your transaction determines your tax outcome, liability exposure, and long-term success.
We’ll help you decide whether to proceed with an asset purchase or share purchase, explaining the benefits and risks of each.

In most cases, asset acquisitions allow you to purchase valuable assets while leaving unwanted liabilities behind, often through a newly incorporated entity created for the transaction.

4. Financing and Funding

Most buyers require financing to complete the purchase. Once your lender issues a commitment letter, we assist with:

  • Reviewing loan agreements
  • Satisfying lending conditions
  • Coordinating trust fund transfers
  • Ensuring all documents comply with lender requirements

Our goal is to make sure your business purchase closes smoothly and securely.

5. Regulatory Compliance & Third-Party Consents

We handle all regulatory requirements, franchisor approvals, and landlord consents, ensuring that every aspect of your transaction meets provincial and federal standards.
Our lawyers ensure your new venture complies with all Canadian business laws and regulations before closing.

6. Closing & Integration Support

Our legal team manages the closing process with precision, overseeing document execution, payment flow, and final transfer of ownership.
After the deal closes, we guide you through the integration phase, helping you merge operations, secure key employees, and maintain business continuity.
