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 Huntsville clients

What does a securities lawyer do?
A securities lawyer advises companies on all aspects of securities law, including public offerings, private placements, SEC compliance, securities litigation, and regulatory investigations. We help companies navigate complex federal and state securities regulations to raise capital, go public, and maintain ongoing compliance.
When should I hire a securities lawyer?
You should engage a securities lawyer whenever you're planning to raise capital, considering going public, facing SEC compliance issues, or dealing with securities litigation. Early involvement allows us to structure transactions properly and avoid costly mistakes.
What is the process for going public?
Going public involves preparing registration statements, completing financial audits, implementing corporate governance structures, conducting due diligence, filing with the SEC, and coordinating with underwriters and exchanges. The process typically takes 6-12 months depending on the complexity and readiness of your company.
How do I know if my company is ready to go public?
Companies ready to go public typically have strong financial performance, audited financials, solid corporate governance, experienced management, a compelling growth story, and the ability to meet ongoing reporting obligations. We can assess your readiness during an initial consultation.
What are the alternatives to a traditional IPO?
Alternatives include direct listings, SPAC mergers, reverse mergers, Regulation A offerings, and private placements under Regulation D. Each option has different requirements, costs, and benefits. We can help you evaluate which path is best for your situation.
What can I expect during an initial consultation in Huntsville?
During your confidential initial consultation in Huntsville, we'll discuss your securities law needs, review your current situation, assess potential challenges specific to Alabama, 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.

Alabama Legal Considerations for Securities Law

Non-Compete Laws

Enforceable under statutory framework with 2-year maximum

Filing Requirements

Business entity transactions require filings with the Alabama Secretary of State. Certain industries (banking, insurance, utilities) require prior approval from the relevant Alabama regulatory authority.

Key Alabama Considerations

  • Alabama's Business Privilege Tax is based on net worth, which can affect acquisition structure for entities with significant Alabama assets
  • Alabama is one of few states requiring recording of security interests in certain personal property at the county level (probate court)
  • The state has separate licensing requirements for acquisitions involving ABC-licensed businesses (alcoholic beverage control)
