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.

Memphis's M&A market is defined by its status as America's logistics capital, home to FedEx's global hub and one of the nation's busiest cargo airports and inland ports. This logistics infrastructure has spawned hundreds of warehousing, freight brokerage, and third-party logistics companies in the $2M-$30M range that are prime acquisition targets. Beyond logistics, Memphis drives deal activity in healthcare (St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, Methodist Le Bonheur), food and agriculture, and a growing music and entertainment services sector.
Memphis offers strong deal flow in logistics and distribution, with the FedEx ecosystem creating a continuous pipeline of founder-owned businesses reaching acquisition scale. Healthcare deals are competitive due to institutional buyer interest, but logistics and industrial businesses trade at reasonable multiples with predictable cash flows.
Memphis's logistics infrastructure is a moat: acquiring a distribution or freight business here means access to FedEx's global hub, four Class I railroads, and America's fourth-largest inland port, creating operational advantages that are nearly impossible to replicate. Tennessee's lack of state income tax on wages adds immediate bottom-line value to acquisitions.
Tennessee enforces non-compete agreements under a reasonableness analysis and recently enacted the Tennessee Lawful Employment Act requiring E-Verify compliance, which acquirers must factor into workforce due diligence; the state has no bulk sales act, but Tennessee's franchise and excise tax obligations transfer with going-concern business sales and require careful clearance.
Enforceable with blue-pencil available. Independent consideration required post-hire.
Entity mergers and conversions must be filed with the Tennessee Secretary of State. Annual reports are required. The Department of Revenue handles franchise and excise tax registrations.
Tennessee Bar Association. Voluntary bar. The Tennessee Supreme Court handles attorney admission separately via the Board of Law Examiners.
Bar association websiteFederal districts: E.D. Tenn., M.D. Tenn., W.D. Tenn.
Business court: Tennessee Chancery Court Business Court Docket (established 2015) Business court docket operates within the Davidson County Chancery Court (Nashville) and Shelby County Chancery Court (Memphis). Tennessee chancery courts historically have equity jurisdiction over business matters.
Nashville drives Tennessee M&A across healthcare services, music and entertainment, hospitality, and technology; Memphis generates deal flow in logistics, distribution, and healthcare.

"The longer a deal drags, the worse it gets. Deal fatigue is real. Even when both parties agreed to something early on, if dates slip and deadlines slip, human nature takes over. At some point one side goes back to the internal drawing board and decides they don't want to be part of it anymore. I usually find this to be symptomatic of a poor process on the front end. Not malice. Not negative intent. Not someone running up fees. Just poor alignment, poor qualification, poor structuring at the start of the engagement. Once that's the foundation, every missed date compounds. The fix isn't more negotiation in the middle. The fix is doing better qualification before the deal team is even hired."
