Business Owners: Before You Sell, Conduct an Internal Audit

If selling your business is your ultimate goal, you should consider conducting an “internal audit” of your business before embarking on the sale process. The purpose of this internal audit should be to identify and compile the numerous documents and information that will likely need to be produced/disclosed in connection with a sale of your business. The internal audit also provides the opportunity to identify potential areas of concern in the business and resolve those issues before the sale process commences.

By taking these steps in advance, a business owner can better prepare for the various issues and tasks that will arise in connection with the sale of their business. Paul Rushton, the Chair of our Firm’s Business & Finance Department, and the other lawyers in the Department are ready to assist you with your internal audit.
