I represent a diverse mix in a vast array of specialties, including litigation, contracts, compliance, business and financial strategies, and emerging industries. Credit for this foundation of strength goes to those who taught me. Skilled professors and professionals fostered my powerful educational and professional background. Prior to law school, I earned dual Bachelor’s degrees in Business Administration & Accounting from Peru State College. I received a Master of Business Administration degree from Chadron State College. My ambitions did not stop there. While working full time as a Senior Accountant for the University of Missouri, Columbia, I achieved the lifelong goal of becoming a licensed Certified Public Accountant (CPA). Mizzo provided excellent opportunities and amazing experiences. Managing over $50M in government and private research funding was a gift. As a high ranking professional in the Department of Research, I was given priceless insight into the greatest scientific, journalistic, medical, and legal minds in the world. My passion for successful growth did not, and has not stopped. I graduated summa cum laude (top 3%) with a Doctorate in Law, emphasizing in urban, land use and environmental/toxic tort law from the University of Missouri, Kansas City. This success lead to invaluable experiences of serving as Hon. Brian C. Wimes' judicial clerk for the U.S. District Court for the W. D. of Missouri, as a staff editor/writer for UMKC Law Review, and as a litigation and transactional attorney with Lathrop GPM (fka Lathrop & Gage). My professional and personal network is expansive, with established relationships throughout the U.S. and overseas. Although I engage in legal practice all over the country, I maintain law licenses in Missouri, Kansas, and Nebraska. Federally, I hold licenses in the W.D. and E.D. of Missouri and the District of Nebraska. To offer extra value, efficiency, and options, I maintain a CPA license and am obtaining a real-estate brokerage license.
"I contacted Parachini Law after I had sent multiple unanswered information requests a third party. Mark not only send out a record request to the address specified, but also sent out additional requests at other possible business addresses to ensure the request was received. As a result, I finally received the information I was looking for. The firm was very professional to work with."

Acquisitions Legal Questions and Answers
Acquisitions
Business Purchase Agreement
California
Is a business purchase agreement binding?
I am interested in purchasing a business and I am currently in the process of negotiating a business purchase agreement. I am curious to know if the agreement is binding and what legal implications it may have if I decide to move forward with the purchase. I have read through the agreement and I understand the terms and conditions, however, I would like to know if the agreement is legally binding.
David B.
It seems that you are thinking of signing a letter of intent. A letter of intent ("LOI") is normally used to summarize the key points of a deal upon which the parties have reached an understanding. It is a prelude to a full set of agreements used to purchase a business. After the LOI is signed, the parties negotiate the minutiae of a deal and prepare the final set of agreement. LOIs usually contain a statement that the LOI does not bind either party to move forward with a deal. For the most part this is true. However, case law is replete with cases where the LOI was enforced against an unwilling party despite the disclaimer in the LOI. Generally speaking, courts will enforce an LOI where one party did not act in good faith after the LOI was signed, refused to negotiate or signed the LOI for nefarious purposes. A person contemplating an LOI should not assume that language saying the agreement is not binding will clear them of all responsibility. There is a duty to negotiate in good faith.

Asset Purchase Agreement
Texas
How does an asset purchase agreement work with debt?
I am buying a business and want to use an asset purchase agreement based on what I've read, but I believe the company has debt. How does this work? Will I also be buying the debt? Any help is appreciated
John S.
It depends. If you want to use an asset purchase agreement to purchase just the assets of the company instead of the entire company, then an asset purchase agreement is the way to go as you could avoid taking on the company's existing debts. However, if you plan to buy the business as a whole I would expect you will inherit the debts as well unless you draft a release from the former owners.

LLC
Texas
Can I sell my LLC post-formation?
I am an entrepreneur looking to start a business and am considering forming a limited liability company (LLC). I have done my research and understand the basics of forming an LLC, but I am now curious to know if I can sell my LLC post-formation. I want to ensure that the structure of my LLC will provide me with the flexibility to sell if the opportunity arises.
Darryl S.
Yes, you typically can sell an LLC post-formation. Some key points to consider if you may want to sell your LLC in the future: - You retain flexibility to sell membership interests (ownership units) in the LLC rather than the entity itself. This keeps things simpler as transferring formal LLC ownership requires dissolution paperwork. - The operating agreement should clearly outline members' rights and rules around transferring units, such as rights of first refusal and valuation mechanisms. This gives buyers confidence in the process. - Discuss with a lawyer and accountant to set up the appropriate LLC structure for your situation. For example, a single-member vs multi-member LLC may have different implications for a future sale. - Maintain detailed financial records and consistent bookkeeping. This will streamline the due diligence process for prospective buyers. So in short, yes an LLC remains a saleable entity after formation. Consider rules for transfers in the operating agreement, structure properly at the start, and keep excellent records. This gives you maximum flexibility for an ownership exit strategy via selling your LLC interest. Let me know if you need any clarification or have additional questions!

Stock Purchase Agreement
Connecticut
When to use a stock purchase agreement?
I am a business owner looking to purchase a company and I am considering using a Stock Purchase Agreement to effectuate the transaction. I am uncertain when this type of agreement should be used and would like to understand the legal implications of using it. I am also interested in understanding any potential tax implications of using a Stock Purchase Agreement.
Thomas L.
There are two ways to buy a company. 1. Asset purchase (you purchase the assets of the company directly) 2. Equity (stock) purchase. You purchase the equity of the company. Eauity purchases are far less expensive (legal fees). But in either case, you must hold back 10-20% of the purchase price in trust for a year to make sure the accounting records are in fact accurate, the receivables actually exist, and there are no undisclosed liabilities (tax, employee lawsuits, etc.)
Acquisitions
Asset Purchase Agreement
Texas
Who drafts the asset purchase agreement?
I have just put my business up for sale and doing some research on what legal documents will be needed in the future.
Ramsey T.
It depends. In many cases the lawyers representing the seller draft the asset purchase agreement. This is not always the case and at least forty percent (40%) of the deals I have worked on have featured the buyer drafting the asset purchase agreement. Who drafts the agreement may often depend upon who is in a stronger position and/or who has attorneys with the bandwidth to properly support the deal, as envisioned in the relevant term sheet.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
