Swamped this Time of Year? Start Your Next Florida Asset Deal with this Short Form

January 02, 2024 (2 min read)

When a client is acquiring the assets of a smaller company, the parties may prefer to use the law of the jurisdiction where the assets are located. Florida is a large, industry-diverse state with several major metropolitan areas. From Pensacola to Jacksonville, and Jacksonville to Miami, many practitioners find it useful to have a Florida law template to begin the drafting process. The definition of “substantially all,” stockholder approval rights, bulk sales laws, applicability of appraisal rights, and the scope of successor liability, among other distinctions, vary among state general corporation statutes. Get started on your next Florida asset transaction using this new short-form template from Practical Guidance.
