Mergers and acquisitions

Westfield Business Law Firm assists its clients with the acquisition of company securities or assets in Morocco.

We first determine the scope of the legal audit to be conducted (full audit or a limited audit). Once the scope is established, we begin the audit of the legal documentation. Our lawyers contact the target company to gather the necessary legal and tax information for analysis.

Based on this audit, we prepare the legal documentation for the investment, including shareholders’ agreements, asset and liability guarantees, and amendments to the articles of association, to ensure maximum protection for the investment. This documentation is then negotiated with the target company and their representatives.

Westfield Business Law Firm provides expert advisory services to both investors and companies. We assist investors in navigating their investments and offer strategic guidance to companies seeking to raise capital or divest a portion of their securities.
