Business Transactions, Entity Formation & Commercial Agreements: Detailed Guidance
Buying and Selling a Business in Boca Raton
Gutter Chaves Josepher Rubin Forman Fleisher Miller P.A. represents both
buyers and sellers in business and asset sale transactions throughout
Palm Beach County and South Florida. Engagements typically begin with tax
structuring advice, since the form of a transaction (asset sale versus stock
or membership interest sale) directly affects the tax outcome for both
parties, followed by drafting and negotiating the purchase agreement through
closing.
Buy-Sell Agreements and Succession Planning
For owners of closely held businesses, the firm drafts buy-sell agreements
that establish a clear valuation method and funding mechanism for
transferring an owner’s interest upon death, disability, retirement, or
termination of employment, helping avoid disputes among remaining owners
and heirs while planning for the related tax consequences.
Entity Formation and Ongoing Commercial Matters
New ventures receive guidance on entity selection and tax structuring before
formation documents, such as articles of organization, operating agreements,
and bylaws, are prepared. Beyond formation, the firm serves as ongoing
business counsel on licensing agreements, employment and independent
contractor agreements, distributorship and sales agreements, and commercial
leases.
Who This Practice Serves
Business owners buying or selling a company, multi-owner businesses needing
buy-sell or succession planning, entrepreneurs forming new entities, and
established companies negotiating commercial contracts and leases.
