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.

New York is the undisputed capital of M&A deal-making, home to the largest concentration of investment banks, private equity firms, and corporate acquirers in the world. Lower middle-market deals in the $1M-$50M range are driven by professional services consolidation, healthcare practice roll-ups, and technology company acquisitions. The city's dense business ecosystem creates fierce competition for quality targets, with PE-backed platforms actively seeking add-on acquisitions across the tri-state area.
New York's deal flow is the highest in the nation, but competition from well-capitalized PE firms means sellers often receive multiple offers. Buyers need experienced counsel to structure competitive bids while protecting their downside.
The New York metro area has over 200,000 businesses with employees, creating one of the deepest acquisition target pools in the country. The region's talent density and infrastructure make post-acquisition integration smoother than most markets.
New York's Bulk Sales Act (UCC Article 6) has been repealed, but buyers must still conduct thorough due diligence on successor liability under state tax law, as the Department of Taxation can hold buyers liable for a seller's unpaid taxes.
Enforceable with five-factor reasonableness test. Blue-pencil available.
Mergers and entity conversions must be filed with the Connecticut Secretary of the State. The Department of Revenue Services requires notification of bulk asset transfers. Businesses holding state professional licenses must notify the relevant licensing authority.
Connecticut Bar Association. Voluntary bar. The Connecticut Judicial Branch regulates admission separately.
Bar association websiteFederal districts: D. Conn.
Business court: Connecticut Superior Court Complex Litigation Docket (established 1999) Complex litigation docket handles business and commercial disputes; not a freestanding court but a specialized docket within the superior court system.
Connecticut's M&A market reflects its financial services heritage, with Fairfield County serving as a private equity and hedge fund hub proximate to New York City.
