I tried to find a Merge and acquisition attorney/lawyer. None of them (the good ones) understand my business... Internet is too complicated for these guys... :( So to my experience, they are only of bad advice.

We are speaking about $10M...

This thing is that they have added tons of other conditions not related to the Due Diligence and the acquiring process itself.

They already set some constraints for the afterwards.

I would like them not to use the knowledge they will acquire during the assessment of my assets. :)

Grab your excel and simulate your situation starting from the sum of your fixed and varying costs. Do not forget anything (retirement plan, kids, etc)
