Services | mergers & Acquisitions
Problems I Solve:
I focus my mergers & acquisitions practice on M&A in the United States, with an emphasis on:
Micro-cap M&A
Lower Middle Market M&A
Small Business M&A, especially in the New York City Metropolitan Area
Local Counsel to Foreign Companies, especially in the United Kingdom
Questions I Answer:
“Can I sell my business to my employees?”
“My kids don’t want to take over my business, what should I do?”
“How do I make sure that I don’t buy a bad business?”
“How do I make sure that I get paid the entire purchase price?”
The Yohanan Approach to M&A
I empower clients to buy and sell companies in an efficient manner by running a smooth diligence and documentation process. I prepare extensive summaries to help clients understand their options for dealing with key M&A issues including purchase price adjustments, indemnities, representations, disclosure schedules, and more.
In addition, I act as local counsel to foreign companies and assist lead counsels with cross border M&A involving United States companies or United States law. I help foreign lawyers and clients understand United States law, including Delaware and New York, playing a key supporting role in cross border M&A.
Key Clients and Deals
• SnapShooter, a UK technology company, in connection with its acquisition by Digital Ocean (NYSE: DOCN)
• UIA Talent Agency, a New York based talent agency, in connection with its acquisition of ADA Artist Management
Pricing
I offer all clients flat rate fees for mergers & acquisitions. M&A deals are priced based on the size, complexity, and negotiability of the transaction. Cross-border matters will cost more than local NYC matters. Large deals will cost more than small deals. Highly negotiated deals will cost more than pre-packaged deals.
