The manner in which any given merger or acquisition is structured, valued, financed and implemented requires very careful and thorough legal due diligence and facilitation, especially given that shareholding, human resources, intellectual property and regulatory factors amongst others all come in to play.  We understand that “getting the deal done” is the first prize in any transaction, and at C&O Inc. getting the deal done correctly is the at the forefront of our service delivery. We work closely with our clients and our legal counterparts to structure any merger or acquisition robustly to achieve the best outcome possible.  We assist our client with a number of services including, but not limited to:

• Transactional Review
• Legal Due Diligence
