The deal counsel that brokers put on their files: quick document turnarounds, flat fees, and a closing that stays on schedule.
Good brokers want a responsive deal lawyer on the file — slow legal work is the most common reason closings drag past their dates. We turn documents around in days, keep your broker in the loop, and keep your closing on schedule.
We quote broker-led sales individually, as a single flat fee agreed before we start — no hourly meter to slow your closing, and no fee surprises for your broker or your client. Send the deal outline and you'll have a fixed number up front.
Yes. A broker markets your business, finds and screens buyers, and negotiates the headline deal — but brokers don't draft or review the purchase agreement, and their commission depends on closing, not on how well the fine print protects you. The representations, warranties, indemnities, and holdbacks in the agreement decide what you can be sued for after closing. That review is a lawyer's job.
The broker runs the sale process; the lawyer papers the deal. In practice: reviewing the listing and commission agreement before you sign it, structuring the deal as a share or asset sale with your accountant, negotiating the purchase agreement, managing legal due diligence, handling employee and lease issues, and running closing. A good broker will tell you the same — most closings that stall, stall on the legal side.
Earlier than most owners think: ideally before you sign the broker's listing agreement, and certainly before you sign a letter of intent. Both documents lock in terms that are hard to walk back — the LOI in particular sets the price, structure, and exclusivity that shape everything after.
The best time to bring in your deal lawyer is before the listing agreement — the second-best is before the letter of intent. Either way, book a call.
