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 Heathrow 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 Heathrow?

During your confidential initial consultation in Heathrow, we'll discuss your purchase agreement law needs, review your current situation, assess potential challenges specific to Florida, 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 Heathrow?

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

M&A Market: Heathrow & the Orlando Metro

Orlando's M&A landscape extends far beyond tourism, with significant deal activity in defense simulation and training (the region hosts more simulation companies than anywhere in the world), healthcare, and technology. The I-4 corridor's growth has created acquisition opportunities in construction services, hospitality management, and real estate technology. Orlando's position as the theme park capital drives a massive ecosystem of entertainment technology, food service, and staffing businesses.

Top M&A Sectors Near Heathrow

Simulation & Defense Training
Hospitality & Tourism
Healthcare
Construction Services
Entertainment Technology

Deal Environment

Orlando's diversified economy provides consistent deal flow even when tourism fluctuates. The defense simulation cluster creates highly specialized acquisition targets with significant government contract revenue and IP portfolios.

Why Acquire in the Orlando Area

Central Florida adds over 50,000 residents annually, and the region's diverse economy has reduced its dependence on tourism. Orlando's lower operating costs compared to South Florida, combined with strong population growth, create favorable conditions for acquirers.

Florida Legal Considerations

Florida's favorable non-compete enforcement, combined with no state income tax, makes Orlando particularly attractive for acquirers who need to retain key employees and protect customer relationships post-acquisition.

Top Industry Concentration

1 tourism and hospitality
2 simulation and defense technology
3 healthcare

Orlando's economy is anchored by tourism and hospitality, simulation and defense technology, and healthcare. Walt Disney World, Universal, and SeaWorld create a hospitality and entertainment M&A sub-market focused on hotel, restaurant, and attraction acquisitions. The metro also has a significant defense simulation and modeling cluster (the world's largest concentration of simulation technology firms) near the UCF Research Park, which generates defense contractor M&A activity.

Transit and Logistics

Orlando International Airport is a major domestic and international tourist gateway and is undergoing significant expansion. SunRail regional rail serves commuters. The metro's logistics infrastructure supports tourism supply chain distribution.

Recent Heathrow Deal Signal (2024-2025)

No verified 2024-2025 metro-specific deal signal found. Orlando's hospitality sector resumed robust performance post-pandemic and represented an active investment target market, but specific company-level M&A transactions at the metro level were not surfaced in research.

Local Regulatory Notes for Purchase Agreement Law

Florida OFR handles securities. No unusual Orange County or City of Orlando restrictions on business transfers.

Florida Legal Considerations for Purchase Agreement Law

Non-Compete Laws

Strongly enforced under statutory framework (Section 542.335). Hardship to employee not considered.

Filing Requirements

Entity mergers, conversions, and dissolutions require filing with the Florida Division of Corporations (Sunbiz). Bulk asset purchasers must obtain a clearance letter from the Department of Revenue. Professional license transfers require separate filings with the Department of Business and Professional Regulation.

Key Florida Considerations

Florida's non-compete statute expressly prohibits courts from considering the hardship to the restricted party, making it one of the most employer-friendly non-compete regimes in the country
Florida has no personal income tax, which significantly affects deal structure and makes pass-through entity acquisitions (S-corps, LLCs) particularly tax-efficient for Florida-resident buyers
Florida's homestead exemption (unlimited value, subject to acreage limits) can complicate personal guarantees and indemnification provisions in acquisition agreements involving individual sellers

Florida Bar Authority

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

Florida Statute sec. 542.335 governs restrictive covenants and is nationally notable for its pro-enforcement stance.

Florida M&A Market Context

Florida is a major lower-middle-market M&A state, with Miami as an international deal-flow hub and Tampa-Orlando as domestic healthcare and distribution transaction centers.
