Business Brokerage
Selling a Business
Selling your business is one of the most significant decisions you’ll ever make. Whether you're preparing for retirement, shifting to a new venture, or responding to market timing, the process involves more than just finding a buyer—it requires strategy, precision, and experienced guidance. At Lionsgate Law, Brokerage & Advisory, we work with business owners including and medical and dental practice owners to prepare for and execute successful sales, helping you protect your hard-earned equity while minimizing risks.
We assist with every step of the sale process, including business valuation, due diligence, contract negotiation, and buyer vetting. We also guide you on structuring the deal—whether it's an asset sale or stock sale—to align with your financial goals and limit your post-closing liabilities. If your business includes real estate, we can help sell or lease it as part of the deal, leveraging our commercial brokerage expertise.
Our clients benefit from our dual legal and business background, which allows us to negotiate terms that protect you beyond just the headline price. We’ll help you consider factors like payment structure, non-compete provisions, transition support, and tax implications so that you walk away with peace of mind.
Selling a business isn’t just a transaction—it’s a transition. With over 25 years of experience, we help you move forward confidently, knowing your legacy is in good hands.
Buying a Business
Buying a business can be a faster and more secure path to entrepreneurship than starting from scratch—but only if you do it right. At Lionsgate Law, Brokerage & Advisory, we help aspiring and experienced buyers find and evaluate the right opportunities, navigate negotiations, and close the deal with confidence.
Whether you're acquiring your first small business, expanding an existing operation, or investing in a strategic acquisition, we guide you through every stage: reviewing financials, conducting due diligence, negotiating key terms, and structuring the transaction to limit risk. Our legal and brokerage teams work together to ensure that your purchase agreement reflects not only what you’ve agreed to—but also what’s missing or needs clarification.
We advise on deal structure (asset vs. stock purchase), licensing and regulatory requirements, and the transition of contracts, employees, and intellectual property. We also help you plan for post-closing integration to avoid costly surprises.
Buying a business is a major investment. With the right support, it can also be a smart one. Let our experience help you avoid pitfalls and unlock the full value of your new venture.
Business Valuations
Whether you’re planning to sell your business, buy a company, raise capital, or resolve a partner dispute, a reliable business valuation is essential. At Lionsgate Law, Brokerage & Advisory, we provide valuation guidance tailored to your goals—whether you're looking for a ballpark estimate or a formal valuation prepared for legal or tax purposes.
Valuation is both an art and a science. We go beyond simple multiples to consider market conditions, goodwill, customer concentration, recurring revenue, and industry trends. We help you understand what drives value in your business—and how to increase it if you're not ready to sell yet. For sellers, we help establish a competitive asking price that attracts serious buyers without leaving money on the table. For buyers, we help determine whether the price is justified or negotiable based on the financials and risk profile.
Our valuations can support partner buyouts, divorce or dissolution proceedings, estate planning, SBA financing, and investor negotiations. We’re familiar with methods ranging from EBITDA multiples and discounted cash flow to asset-based and market comps, and we tailor our approach based on your specific needs and the nature of your business.
A solid valuation or market pricing analysis is the foundation of a successful transaction or transition. Let us help you get the clarity you need to make informed, confident decisions.
