#359: Law Firm Acquisitions: Deal Structures and Financing Explained with Michael Di Gennaro

from The Law Firm Owner Podcast · host Melissa Shanahan

Have you ever assumed buying a law firm was out of reach because you do not have the capital or experience?   Melissa sits down with Michael Di Gennaro from Law Practice Exchange to break down the financial side of buying a law firm. They explore how most deals are structured, including cash down, earn outs, and alternative financing options. Michael explains why many acquisitions are designed to be financially viable for the buyer and how different deal structures can support a range of goals depending on the size of the firm and the path you want to take.   You will hear why buying a law firm may be more accessible than you think and how to begin evaluating whether it is a strategic move for your growth. If you have ever considered acquisition as a lever in your firm but assumed it was not realistic, this episode will give you a clearer picture of what is possible and what to consider next.   Let's talk!
