Commercial Transactions

Entity Formation

Many of Baram, Tapper & Gans LLC’s business clients are interested in the formation and management of business entities. Adhering to these legal formalities prevents a creditor from piercing the corporate veil and seeking debt satisfaction from one or more of the principals.  In addition to the formation of entities, BTG’s business attorneys are experienced in all aspects of these transactions and serve the client’s needs as required.

Purchase and Sale of Businesses

BTG’s business attorneys have extensive experience in transactions involving the purchase and sale of businesses including mergers and acquisitions.
Structuring the transaction is an important, and sometimes complex, task. The attorney will, if necessary, consult with the client’s accountant and other professional advisors to create a purchase or sale that is both tax advantaged and legally advantageous to the client.

Financing Matters

Hand-in-hand with business transactions are financing transactions with lenders, factors, venture capitalists, and other financing sources. BTG’s business attorneys are not strangers to these matters. The firm’s attorneys have represented lenders, investors, and borrowers for many years and have in-depth experience in handling all aspects of financial transactions.
