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 Littleton 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 Littleton?

During your confidential initial consultation in Littleton, we'll discuss your purchase agreement law needs, review your current situation, assess potential challenges specific to Colorado, 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.

M&A Market: Littleton & the Denver Metro

Denver's M&A market benefits from the city's emergence as a secondary tech hub and its traditional strengths in aerospace, natural resources, and outdoor recreation industries. The region's thriving craft food & beverage sector (breweries, restaurants, CPG brands) drives significant small-business acquisition activity. Colorado's cannabis industry, now mature, is seeing consolidation-driven M&A.

Natural Resources

Cannabis

Deal Environment

Denver offers a balanced market with moderate valuations and consistent deal flow. The city's quality of life attracts relocated executives who often become first-time acquirers, creating a growing buyer pool for local businesses.

Why Acquire in the Denver Area

Colorado's educated workforce (one of the highest percentages of college graduates in the US) and lifestyle appeal create low employee turnover for acquired businesses, protecting post-acquisition value.

Colorado Legal Considerations

Colorado severely restricts non-compete agreements - they are void for most workers unless the employee earns above a high threshold (approximately $123,750 in 2024), making retention strategies and earn-out structures critical in acquisition planning.

Denver's M&A market reflects its position as the gateway to the Mountain West and Rocky Mountain energy markets. Oil and gas, mining, and renewable energy transactions are anchored by the metro's proximity to the DJ Basin and broader Rocky Mountain energy infrastructure. A growing technology and aerospace sector has diversified the deal mix. Denver has also attracted private equity firms seeking lower-cost operations than coastal markets, adding deal-making capacity.

Transit and Logistics

Denver International Airport is the fifth-busiest US airport and the primary air hub for the Mountain West region. Denver is the hub of the Front Range logistics corridor along I-25. Rocky Mountain Corridor rail freight serves the metro.

Recent Littleton Deal Signal (2024-2025)

Renewable energy project acquisitions in Colorado accelerated through 2024 as Xcel Energy and independent power producers expanded solar and wind portfolios. Technology company acquisitions by Denver-based strategic buyers also increased, reflecting the metro's maturing tech ecosystem.
