How a Construction Business Hired a Lawyer to Review an Asset Sale (all docs) in California

In 2023, a business in California sought assistance with the review of an asset sale document as they prepared to sell their operations specializing in installing fencing around homes. With over a decade in the construction industry, the client wanted to ensure that the contract reflected their terms accurately, especially since the agreement would go into escrow and involve a third party. Their priority was to avoid any hidden clauses that could complicate the transaction. As a result, the client received six proposals from licensed lawyers, with flat fee bids ranging from $400 to $1,200, all submitted to meet the requested deadline of less than a week.
