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.

San Antonio's M&A market is significantly influenced by its massive military presence, with Joint Base San Antonio (the largest joint base in the DoD) driving deal activity in defense contracting, cybersecurity, and government IT services. The city is also a major healthcare market, home to the South Texas Medical Center and a growing biosciences sector. San Antonio's lower cost structure compared to Austin and Dallas makes it an increasingly attractive market for mid-market acquisitions in manufacturing, energy services, and hospitality.
San Antonio offers attractive valuations relative to Austin and Dallas, with deal multiples typically 0.5-1 turn lower for comparable businesses. The military community creates a unique pipeline of veteran-owned businesses approaching transition, and the city's steady population growth fuels demand for healthcare and consumer services acquisitions.
San Antonio is the second-largest city in Texas and the seventh-largest in the U.S., with population growth that consistently outpaces the national average and a cost of doing business well below other major Texas metros. The city's $40B+ military economic impact provides a stable demand floor for defense and services businesses.
Texas enforces non-compete agreements if they are ancillary to an otherwise enforceable agreement and meet reasonableness requirements, and the state's lack of a corporate or personal income tax makes post-acquisition cash flow modeling more favorable, though buyers should account for Texas's franchise (margin) tax on entities with revenue exceeding $2.47 million.
Enforceable only if ancillary to an otherwise enforceable agreement. Mandatory reformation.
Entity mergers and conversions must be filed with the Texas Secretary of State. Franchise tax (margin tax) compliance is required. The Comptroller's office handles tax clearance certificates for asset purchases. Public Information Reports are required annually.
State Bar of Texas (mandatory unified bar). Unified/integrated bar. Membership required to practice law in Texas.
Bar association websiteFederal districts: N.D. Tex., S.D. Tex., E.D. Tex., W.D. Tex.
Business court: Texas Business Court (established 2024) Established by HB 19 signed in 2023; became operational September 1, 2024. Eleven divisions statewide, five divisions initially open. Concurrent jurisdiction with district courts in matters over $5 million including corporate governance, shareholder disputes, fiduciary claims, and state or federal securities law. The Fifteenth Court of Appeals serves as the dedicated appellate court, making Texas the first state with a dedicated business court appellate track.
Texas is the second-largest U.S. M&A market, with Houston (energy), Dallas-Fort Worth (technology, financial services), and San Antonio as major deal-flow centers across all industry verticals.
