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.

Jacksonville's M&A market is driven by its position as a major logistics hub (JAXPORT), combined with a growing financial services sector (anchored by FIS, Fidelity National, and Black Knight) and significant military presence (Naval Station Mayport, NAS Jacksonville). The city's healthcare system consolidation and insurance industry presence create consistent deal flow in the $1M-$20M range.
Jacksonville offers less buyer competition than South Florida metros, creating opportunities for acquirers to negotiate more favorable terms. The city's fintech cluster is growing rapidly and producing acquisition targets in payment processing and insurance technology.
Jacksonville is the largest city by land area in the contiguous US, with significant room for growth. Its combination of port access, military spending, and financial services concentration creates a diversified economy less susceptible to market cycles.
Florida's corporate income tax rate is 5.5% (one of the lower state rates), and the state's broad non-compete enforceability means buyers can more effectively protect the goodwill of acquired businesses through reasonable restrictive covenants.
Strongly enforced under statutory framework (Section 542.335). Hardship to employee not considered.
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.
The Florida Bar (mandatory unified bar). Unified/integrated bar. Membership required to practice law in Florida.
Bar association websiteFederal districts: N.D. Fla., M.D. Fla., S.D. Fla.
Business court: Florida Circuit Court Business Courts (multiple counties) (established 2003) Specialized business court divisions operate in Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Hillsborough (Tampa), and Orange (Orlando) counties. Florida Statute sec. 542.335 governs restrictive covenants and is nationally notable for its pro-enforcement stance.
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.
Watchpoints
These are the items we see derail securities law transactions in the Mandarin market. Each one is rooted in current statutory law, recent legislative changes, or recurring patterns from the deals Alex has handled.
Strongly enforced under statutory framework (Section 542.335). Hardship to employee not considered.
"Founders get excited about the check amount and focus on valuation headlines while the fine print gets glossed over."
Securities regulated by Florida Office of Financial Regulation (flofr.gov). Florida follows a comprehensive securities act; Blue Sky notice filings required for Reg D. Florida is a significant enforcement state for unregistered offerings.
Seller financing is a huge buzzword. Run analytics on where your inbound comes from and you'll see it. Speak publicly about seller financing and you will attract a massive amount of interest. The trouble is, the same buzzword attracts unqualified buyers. People without intent. People without funding. People without the ability or desire to actually move forward. I love the idea, and I love the possibility of a creative structure. But it's far less likely than the internet would have you believe. The unicorn opportunity that's completely seller financed, runs hands off, and flips at a massive multiple in months... that math doesn't really make sense. You see it constantly online because it works as a way to attract a large amount of interest. Just not necessarily qualified interest.
