Business Formation Transactions

Our Los Angeles business transactions attorneys stand ready to advise you on all aspects of forming businesses such as corporations, LLCs, partnerships, and limited liability partnerships (LLPs).

Business Acquisition Transactions

Anybody buying or selling a business in California will need to keep several factors in mind, including financing, business valuation, non-compete agreements, non-disclosure agreements, regulatory compliance, letters of intent, stock or asset purchase agreements, new entity structure, risk assessment and management, and tax consequences. An experienced attorney can identify your business objectives, conduct due diligence on a business acquisition target, explain legal issues that may vary depending on factors of the sale, gain regulatory approval and analyze any other required regulatory approvals, build a road map of acquisition for you including the timeframe, work with local legal counsel for international clients, advise on deals and negotiating tactics, review all your contracts: business, employment, outsourcing, debt instruments, preferred stock, obtain third-party consents from lenders or parties to other contracts, determine the tax implications of acquiring a business and advise on next steps, assess regulatory obstacles, and negotiate the agreement, sign, announce publicly, and close the deal.

Our business transaction lawyers can help with the negotiation and drafting of any business contract, assist in capital-raising transactions such as private placements, angel funding, and venture capital, and also negotiate business lease agreements. Private equity firms need to know they will be operating in a multifaceted business environment that faces industry-specific regulations and government scrutiny, while companies contemplating acquiring or selling distressed companies need to ensure they are not dealing with misleading or incomplete information that can complicate situations and impede a business’s growth.

Secured Transactions or Loans

Secured transactions and negotiable instruments are two of the most important areas of commercial and business law our corporate transactional lawyers handle at Omni Legal Group. Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) specifically deals with secured transactions and applies to any transaction, regardless of its form, creating a security interest in personal property or fixtures by contract, including agricultural liens, sales of accounts, chattel papers, payment intangibles, promissory notes, consignments, and many other kinds of security agreements.

A secured transaction involves a borrower agreeing that the lender can take property the borrower owns as collateral when the borrower defaults on a loan. A negotiable instrument is a kind of writing promising the payment of a fixed amount of money.

The most common kinds of secured transactions are mortgages and automobile loans. When a debtor borrows money to purchase a car or home, the vehicle or the home will be the collateral for the loan.

The creditor has a security interest in the vehicle or home and can either repossess and sell a car when the borrower fails to make payments or foreclose and sell the home for the same failure to make payments. The bottom line of a secured transaction is the creation of a security interest in which there is collateral guaranteeing a loan will be repaid.
