Questions to Ask Any M&A Attorney Before Hiring

Use these before you call any firm, including ours.

1. "Who will actually handle my transaction?"

At many firms, a partner sells the work and a junior associate does it. Ask for the name of the attorney who will draft and negotiate your documents.

2. "How many M&A transactions has the lead attorney closed in the past 12 months?"

Volume indicates current, active deal experience, not just credentials from years ago.

3. "What is your experience with my deal size and industry?"

A $500K SBA acquisition and a $50M PE deal require different skill sets. Make sure the attorney has handled transactions similar to yours.

4. "Will you coordinate with my CPA, financial advisor, and broker?"

M&A transactions require a team. Your attorney should work with your other advisors, not in a silo.

5. "How do you handle post-closing disputes?"

Reps, warranties, and indemnification claims surface months after closing. Ask whether the firm handles post-closing litigation or refers it out.

6. "What is your fee structure, and what drives cost?"

Hourly, flat fee, or hybrid. Ask what factors increase legal costs so there are no surprises.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from Choctaw clients

What is the difference between an APA and an SPA?

An asset purchase agreement (APA) lets you select specific assets and liabilities to acquire, giving you more control over what transfers. A stock purchase agreement (SPA) transfers ownership of the entire entity, including all assets and liabilities. The right choice depends on tax considerations, liability exposure, and the specific deal structure your transaction requires.

Why do I need an attorney for my purchase agreement?

The purchase agreement is the single most important document in your deal. It allocates risk between buyer and seller through representations, warranties, indemnification, and closing conditions. A poorly drafted agreement can leave you exposed to liabilities, overpayment, or post-closing disputes that could have been prevented.

How long does it take to draft a purchase agreement?

A first draft typically takes 5 to 10 business days depending on deal complexity. Negotiation and revisions can add 2 to 4 weeks. Acquisition Stars is built for speed, and Managing Partner Alex Lubyansky keeps the drafting process moving so your deal stays on track.

What should a purchase agreement include?

A well-drafted purchase agreement addresses purchase price and payment terms, asset or stock transfer mechanics, representations and warranties from both parties, indemnification obligations and caps, closing conditions and deliverables, post-closing adjustments, and non-compete and transition terms. Every provision should be tailored to your specific transaction.

Can you review a purchase agreement the other side drafted?

Yes. Reviewing and marking up the other side's draft is one of the most common engagements we handle. We identify terms that are unfavorable, missing protections, and hidden risks, then negotiate revisions that bring the agreement in line with your interests and standard market terms.

What can I expect during an initial consultation in Choctaw?

During your confidential initial consultation in Choctaw, we'll discuss your purchase agreement law needs, review your current situation, assess potential challenges specific to Oklahoma, and outline a clear path forward. We'll explain our process, answer your questions, and determine if we're the right fit for your needs.

Do you work with companies outside of Choctaw?

Yes, we represent clients nationwide while maintaining a strong presence in Choctaw. Our managing partner handles purchase agreement law matters across all 50 states, coordinating with local counsel where state-specific requirements apply.

M&A Market: Choctaw & the Oklahoma City Metro

Oklahoma City's M&A market is anchored by the energy sector, with a concentration of oil and gas exploration, production, and midstream companies that generate deal activity across the value chain from wellhead services to pipeline operations. The city has diversified meaningfully into aerospace and defense, with Tinker Air Force Base and the FAA's Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center creating an aviation services cluster. OKC's cost of living (among the lowest of any U.S. metro above 1M population) supports strong margins for acquired businesses across sectors.

Aerospace & Aviation Maintenance
Agriculture & Food Processing
Healthcare & Behavioral Health
Financial Services & Banking

Deal Environment

Oklahoma City offers a value-oriented M&A market with deal multiples well below national averages, particularly for energy services businesses during commodity downturns. The market is relationship-driven, with local intermediaries and the Oklahoma chapter of ACG playing important roles in deal origination.

Why Acquire in the Oklahoma City Area

Oklahoma's low cost structure, business-friendly regulatory environment, and absence of significant state-level compliance burdens make OKC-acquired businesses highly cash-flow efficient. The metro's energy sector expertise provides a talent pool for acquirers looking to build platforms in upstream and midstream services.

Oklahoma Legal Considerations

Oklahoma is notable for its near-complete prohibition of non-compete agreements (with narrow exceptions for the sale of a business and partnership dissolution), which means acquirers cannot rely on post-closing non-competes for key employees outside the seller themselves, making retention strategies and trade secret protections essential.

Oklahoma Legal Considerations for Purchase Agreement Law

Non-Compete Laws

Banned entirely. Sale-of-business and non-solicitation exceptions.

Filing Requirements

Entity mergers and conversions must be filed with the Oklahoma Secretary of State. Annual certificates are required for all entities. The Oklahoma Tax Commission requires tax clearance for asset purchases.

Key Oklahoma Considerations

Oklahoma's statutory ban on non-competes means target companies cannot rely on employee non-compete covenants for workforce retention, and buyers must use other mechanisms (retention bonuses, non-solicitation agreements) to protect talent investment
Oklahoma's oil and gas industry creates unique M&A considerations including mineral rights, Oklahoma Corporation Commission regulatory oversight, and complex joint operating agreements
Oklahoma's tribal jurisdiction issues can affect transactions involving businesses on tribal land or with tribal enterprise partners

Oklahoma Bar Authority

Oklahoma Bar Association (mandatory unified bar). Unified/integrated bar. Membership required to practice law in Oklahoma.

Oklahoma Federal and Business Courts

Federal districts: N.D. Okla., E.D. Okla., W.D. Okla.

Business court: No dedicated business court division. Commercial disputes proceed through general civil courts.

Oklahoma M&A Market Context

Oklahoma M&A is concentrated in oil and gas, energy services, agriculture, and aerospace; Oklahoma City and Tulsa are the primary deal markets.
