Description

Handle M&A disputes with an insider's skillset

M&A Disputes provides a detailed look at the many components and nuances of M&A purchase price adjustment mechanisms and post-closing disputes. Although common, the negotiation and resolution of M&A disputes requires specialized knowledge and can be opaque to non-practitioners. This step-by-step guide takes you inside the world of M&A post-closing purchase price adjustments and disputes to provide an intimate look at how the process works.

This practitioner's reference offers tools and guidance that can assist in preventing and resolving issues along the entire lifecycle of a transaction. It enables you to:

  • Gain a thorough understanding of the M&A dispute framework to guide you along the way
  • Benefit from situation-specific advice aimed at limiting the scope of disputes or preventing them altogether while fully preparing to win
  • Understand the "dos" and "don'ts" of persuading an accounting arbitrator to achieve the best possible outcome

Until the purchase price is final, you need M&A Disputes.
