Business Acquisitions
Whether you’re acquiring a company, selling your ownership stake, or restructuring your entity, Swafford Law Firm, LLC provides the legal precision you need to close with confidence.
From due diligence to final signatures, we protect your interests at every step.
Asset Sale Agreements
An Asset Sale Agreement governs the sale of a company’s assets. This leaves the selling entity still intact while the Buyer gets the assets that it desired. We ensure these contracts clearly define the assets, liabilities (to the extent some assets have liens or are encumbered), warranties, and conditions involved – so there are no surprises!
At Swafford Law Firm, LLC, we help you navigate the transaction from start to finish with clarity, compliance, and strategic foresight. Our goal is to make sure you understand every term, anticipate every risk, and walk away with a deal that truly supports your business goals.
Drafting Membership Interest Agreements
Clarify Ownership. Protect Your Stake.
When ownership of a limited liability company (LLC) changes hands, a well-drafted Membership Interest Agreement ensures everyone’s rights and responsibilities are clearly defined.
We draft and review these agreements to safeguard both majority and minority owners — ensuring a fair, enforceable, and legally sound transition.
Our Membership Agreement Services Include
✅ Defining ownership percentages and capital contributions
✅ Outlining voting rights, profit allocations, and buyout provisions
✅ Structuring management and control terms
✅ Including transfer and restriction clauses
✅ Coordinating compliance with state business laws
Entity Purchase Agreements
Secure Every Term of the Sale
An Entity Purchase Agreement (or Stock/Interest Purchase Agreement) governs the sale of ownership in a business.
We ensure these contracts clearly define the assets, liabilities, warranties, and conditions involved — so there are no surprises after closing.
