Buying or Selling a Business
Whether you’re purchasing a local business or a large, well-established company, it’s essential to understand the legal issues associated with the transaction. We advise on asset versus share purchases, tax implications, required licenses and business registrations to protect your interests throughout the process.
Mergers & Acquisitions
We have a strong business legal team that represents clients in mergers and acquisitions transactions, ranging from large to small. Our team includes practitioners in tax, securities regulation, banking and financial, employment and intellectual property issues that arise in M&A transactions.
Business Succession Planning
Business succession planning allows you to transfer ownership while minimizing personal risk. A well-thought-out succession plan ensures tax-effective transitions, whether to family members or third parties.
Restructuring & Insolvency
We provide a practical and solution-driven approach to handling complex insolvencies and restructurings. We have acted on behalf of creditors in numerous major insolvencies that have occurred in Nova Scotia.
