It is advisable to have an attorney review the legal documents. It is important, however, that the attorney you hire is familiar with the business buying process and has the time available to handle the paperwork on a timely basis. If the attorney does not have experience in handling business sales, you may be paying for the attorney’s education.
You can find your own attorney or accountant, or Comprehensive Business Brokers can refer you to professional affiliates who are familiar with the buying process.
