Description

This introductory class from AltaClaro teaches basic and intermediate legal concepts in M&A law (the buying, selling, and combining of different companies, their assets, and their businesses). It examines the deal process and explores each of the three most common forms of M&A: asset purchases, stock purchases, and mergers. Students will learn about essential concepts and vocabulary, business and regulatory drivers, and key differences between structures, using real-world examples. You'll build a great foundation for learning the topics covered in more advanced courses.
