by Scott Edward Walker on October 6th, 2010Introduction
Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) are definitely starting to come back to life. In fact, we’ve recently been retained on a couple of new sell-side, middle-market M&A transactions.

“Ask the Attorney” – Acquiring a Company (Part 1)
by Scott Edward Walker on April 28th, 2010Introduction
This post is part of my weekly “Ask the Attorney” series which I am writing for VentureBeat (one of the most popular websites for entrepreneurs). As the VentureBeat Editor notes on the site: “Ask the Attorney is a new VentureBeat feature allowing start-up owners to get answers to their legal questions.”
I have two goals here: (i) to encourage entrepreneurs to ask law-related questions regardless of how basic they may be; and (ii) to provide helpful responses in plain English (as opposed to legalese). Please give me your feedback in the comments section. Many thanks, Scott
