Adamian Law

Frequently asked questions

What kind of legal work does Adamian Law handle?

Adamian Law works exclusively on mergers and acquisitions. It represents buyers and sellers of small businesses and low mid-market companies in transactions under $20 million, along with related corporate finance work like structuring the debt or security behind a purchase.

How does Adamian Law charge for a deal?

Instead of billing by the hour, the firm quotes a fixed fee range before the file starts, based on the size and complexity of the transaction. Its published example prices a $5 million asset purchase at $20,000 to $30,000 plus HST and disbursements, and if a deal doesn't close, clients get a partial refund for the work that wasn't completed.

Is the first meeting free?

Yes. Adamian Law offers a free initial consultation and doesn't charge for preparing the letter of intent, so it can understand a deal before quoting a price.

Can Adamian Law help arrange financing for a business purchase?

Yes. Its corporate finance work covers structuring debt, equity, or hybrid financing for an acquisition and preparing the security documentation a lender needs, including Personal Property Security Act registrations.

Should I buy the assets or the shares of a business?

Adamian Law walks clients through both options. An asset purchase lets a buyer pick specific assets and leave certain liabilities behind, while a share purchase transfers the whole company, assets and liabilities together, and usually needs fewer third party approvals.

Where is Adamian Law located?

The office is at 320 Bay Street, Suite 422, in Toronto's Financial District, in a building known as The Permanent at Bay and Adelaide.
