We are continuing to have a busy year. In the third quarter, our Mergers & Acquisitions, Real Estate, Banking & Financial Institutions, and General Corporate & Business practice groups handled a number of transactions for distributors, suppliers, manufacturers, insurance agencies, renewable energy firms, a fishing resort, and many more. We are also working on some big matters right now, and Q4 looks to be a very exciting time!
The following list is a sampling of some of our largest transactions from the third quarter:
- FMJ represented the sellers in the $20,000,000 sale of their hydraulic equipment distribution business to a private equity-backed strategic buyer. FMJ advised on the structuring of the transaction, drafting and negotiating transaction documentation, coordinating all third-party consents, and providing due diligence for the transaction.
