Confidential business information must be considered and protected in the process of selling a business. A business seller must work closely with their business broker and lawyer to determine what should be disclosed and how it should occur. The seller and business broker should also ensure that they are in fact dealing with whom they think they are; otherwise they might find confidential business information in the hands of a competitor.

Consultation

For new clients, I offer a paid initial phone consultation for $1,430 (incl. GST), which covers up to two hours of my time.

This option provides a relatively low-risk way for us to discuss your situation and explore how I may be able to help. I will provide initial advice and direction where possible. However, most matters require more than two hours to complete; if that’s the case, I’ll provide a follow-up proposal outlining how I'm able to help and an estimate of legal fees.

I set aside only a limited number of consultation times. If you can’t find a suitable time, or would like to clarify anything before booking, please get in touch — I’ll do my best to accommodate you.
