Mergers & Acquisitions
Escamilla Law Office advises buyers, sellers and privately held companies in acquisitions, divestitures and other negotiated changes in ownership or control.
Discuss a TransactionTransaction Counsel
Each transaction presents a distinct allocation of value, control, obligations and risk. The firm advises clients from the first principal terms through closing and the obligations that continue afterward.
Early Involvement
The letter of intent often establishes the structure, economics and negotiating framework of the transaction. Involving deal counsel before it is signed allows those terms to be evaluated while meaningful flexibility remains.
