Transactions
& M&A

Overview

STA Legal's corporate transactions practice advises buyers, sellers, management teams and investors on the full spectrum of M&A activity — from small bolt-on acquisitions to complex cross-border deals. We work alongside our clients' accountants and tax advisers to provide integrated, commercially focused transactional support.

What We Handle

• Share purchases and asset acquisitions
• Management buyouts and buy-ins
• Private equity investment and exits
• Due diligence and disclosure
• Earn-out structures and deferred consideration
• Warranty and indemnity negotiations
• Post-completion integration and disputes
• Cross-border transactions with UK elements

Our Approach

We work at pace and without unnecessary complexity. Our lawyers are experienced in running transactions from heads of terms through to completion, managing multi-party negotiations and ensuring the deal gets done on terms that work commercially, not just legally.
