A business transaction is a deal involving the exchange of goods, services, or ownership rights that creates binding duties on all parties. Typical steps include drafting and negotiating documents, conducting due diligence, and completing the closing with proper filings. The specifics depend on the deal type and industry.
A term sheet should outline the deal structure, key economic terms, milestones, and responsibilities. It acts as a roadmap for detailed contract drafting and helps prevent scope creep and misaligned expectations.
Due diligence timelines vary by deal size and complexity but generally span several weeks. A focused approach can shorten the window, while a complex transaction may require more thorough review of financials, contracts, and liabilities.
Closing involves finalizing all documents, ensuring regulatory compliance, transferring ownership, and recording necessary filings. It marks the formal completion of the transaction.

California law often governs business transactions by default, but parties can choose another jurisdiction. It’s important to confirm governing law and the impact on remedies and enforceability.
While you can review documents on your own, having an experienced attorney provide a professional review helps identify issues you may miss and offers options for negotiation.
