What is an Accession Deed?

An accession deed is a document that transfers ownership of an entire parcel of land to another person. It can also transfer property from one entity (such as a corporation) to another (for example, from the corporation's president to the company itself).

An accession deed is often used in business transactions such as mergers and acquisitions. If a business considers adding more property or assets to its existing holdings, it may be worth investigating what type of legal agreement will work best and how much money will need to change hands.

Common Sections in Accession Deeds

Below is a list of common sections included in Accession Deeds. These sections are linked to the below sample agreement for you to explore.

My Legal career has focused on representing businesses (corporations and limited liability companies) as general outside counsel. In this capacity, I have drafted a broad range of legal documents as well as analyzed proposed agreements drafted by the other party's attorney to the agreement for the purpose of determining the risks to which my client would be exposed. I maintained the client's minute book if no one in-house was available for that task. Additionally, if requested, I served as a general advisor to the client's executive offers and to its Board of Directors.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
