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.

Mississippi M&A activity is modest in volume, concentrated in agriculture, energy, healthcare, and casino gaming; the Natchez Trace corridor generates some manufacturing deal activity.

"Buying a business is equally attractive right now, if not more attractive, than investing in more traditional means. A Vanguard index fund is a fantastic investment. It's stable. It's calm. It's predictable. Few fires, and you know what you'll get over the long haul. But for a certain personality type, acquisition gives you something an index fund can't... not just from a return perspective, but from a lifestyle one. Folks with a proper deal team and proper guidance are finding businesses, cash flowing them, and minimizing the time they spend running them over the long term. It's not perfect. It's not easy. It's not hands off. But it is manageable once you've developed your teeth in the field. That's why you're seeing people get into the space who traditionally wouldn't have done so."
