What Are Mergers and Acquisitions?
Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) are business transactions used for company growth. A merger occurs when companies combine; an acquisition is when one company purchases another. M&A helps reduce costs, diversify, expand market share, or gain technology, clients, new product and service offerings, and geographic markets. M&A transactions are legally complex, so companies work with counsel like ours to ensure proper handling.
For transactions including mergers and acquisitions and the due diligence, negotiation and regulatory approval processes preceding or following these types of business changes, it is crucial to seek counsel from attorneys like those at Free Vector Advisors. Our Bozeman M&A lawyers can help you every step of the way.
