Use these before you call any firm, including ours.
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.
Volume indicates current, active deal experience, not just credentials from years ago.
A $500K SBA acquisition and a $50M PE deal require different skill sets. Make sure the attorney has handled transactions similar to yours.
M&A transactions require a team. Your attorney should work with your other advisors, not in a silo.
Reps, warranties, and indemnification claims surface months after closing. Ask whether the firm handles post-closing litigation or refers it out.
Hourly, flat fee, or hybrid. Ask what factors increase legal costs so there are no surprises.

Las Vegas's M&A market extends well beyond the Strip, encompassing a diverse economy driven by hospitality and entertainment, construction, healthcare, and a rapidly growing technology sector. The region's massive convention and tourism infrastructure creates deal opportunities in food services, facility management, and experiential entertainment that are unique nationally. Southern Nevada's explosive population growth (among the fastest in the U.S.) has triggered consolidation waves in healthcare, home services, and commercial real estate.
Las Vegas deal flow is highly seasonal, with hospitality-related transactions often timed around convention and tourism cycles. Buyers should expect higher revenue volatility in hospitality-adjacent businesses but can find attractively priced assets during softer tourism periods. The market has deepened considerably as diversification beyond gaming continues.
Nevada's zero state income tax, both personal and corporate, creates an immediate bottom-line advantage for acquired businesses compared to competitors in California or other high-tax states. The metro's 30% population growth over the past decade provides organic revenue growth for consumer-facing businesses, and its proximity to Southern California opens a massive addressable market.
Nevada has enacted one of the nation's most protective LLC statutes, including charging order protection for single-member LLCs, and the state does not enforce non-compete agreements for hourly workers, which is critical to workforce planning in hospitality-related acquisitions.
Enforceable with restrictions for low-wage workers. Blue-pencil available.
Entity mergers and conversions must be filed with the Nevada Secretary of State. Bulk sales compliance requires 45-day advance creditor notice. Annual lists (reports) are required with relatively high filing fees. Business licenses are required from the Nevada Secretary of State.
State Bar of Nevada (mandatory unified bar). Unified/integrated bar. Membership required to practice law in Nevada.

Nevada is a popular state of incorporation alternative to Delaware for gaming, cannabis, and technology companies.
Nevada M&A reflects gaming and hospitality, technology, and real estate sectors in Las Vegas; Reno has grown as a technology and logistics corridor with significant acquisition activity.

"There needs to be a qualification process on the front end. Not just for attorneys who have a billable hour and need to justify their time. For everybody. Brokers don't get paid hourly, but they have a financial incentive and they shouldn't waste time on someone completely unqualified either. I get ten to twenty emails every week from people who are clearly tire kickers. No actual intent. No funding. Nothing in place that would indicate a serious pathway. So my first qualifier is simple. Do you have financing lined up. Are you a cash buyer. Is there an SBA loan. It's not because I don't think they can afford my legal fee. It's because I don't think they're serious. If I can figure that out early, it saves both of us time and pain. There's a lot of information on the internet. If you have no funding and no target criteria and don't know what you're buying, it's way too early to engage a professional."
