Business Law
Representing companies, entrepreneurs, executives, and investors in acquisitions, business sales, ownership and equity transactions, and complex commercial agreements.
Discuss a TransactionMost of this work involves a change in ownership. A company is being acquired or sold, an owner is coming in or stepping out, or a founder is planning a transition. What decides the outcome is the structure, what diligence turns up, and the language that ends up in the purchase agreement.
Jaffe Law represents companies, entrepreneurs, executives, investors, and ownership groups from the first conversation through closing. The office is in Miami and matters run throughout Florida.
Purchases and sales of privately held companies, including deal structure, letters of intent, purchase agreements, diligence, financing conditions, and closing.
Getting a company ready to sell and then holding the line on price, escrow, indemnity, restrictive covenants, and what the seller still owes after closing.
Equity issuances, partner admissions, buyouts, and redemptions, along with the agreements that govern control, distributions, and transfer rights.
Distribution, supply, licensing, services, and joint venture agreements where the terms carry real money and real exposure.
Direct negotiation with the other side and their counsel, from the letter of intent through the final signature version, with the economics kept in view throughout.
Transferring a business to partners, family, or management, with the documents and the timing arranged so the transition actually holds up.
Organizational matters that come up alongside a transaction or a broader business engagement.
Corporations, limited liability companies, holding structures, and ownership arrangements formed to fit the deal or the business behind it.
Operating agreements, shareholder and partnership agreements, and the governance terms that decide control, distributions, and how an owner exits.
Vendor, service, and licensing agreements drafted and reviewed as they come up, under Florida law.
We go through the deal, the timeline, and what you are trying to accomplish. You get a clear scope and fee arrangement before any work starts.
Documents are drafted or reviewed and diligence is worked through, so the issues that move price and risk surface while there is still time to act on them.
Terms are negotiated, signature versions are finalized, and the transaction closes with filings and post closing obligations accounted for.
Purchases and sales of privately held companies, equity and ownership transactions, partner buyouts, succession transfers, and the commercial agreements that surround them.
Before the letter of intent is signed if possible. That document sets price, structure, exclusivity, and the shape of everything that follows, and it is far cheaper to get right than to unwind later.
Yes. Corporations, limited liability companies, operating and shareholder agreements, and ownership structures are all part of the practice, usually alongside a transaction or a broader business matter.
The office is in Miami and matters run throughout Florida, including transactions where the company, the other side, or the assets sit elsewhere in the state.
