How This M&A Lawyer Helps Buyers Avoid the Hidden Traps in SMB Acquisitions
The "Ticking Time Bombs" Eric Hsu Says Most Buyers Miss: Clear Focus Law founder reveals the red flags that can destroy deals months after closing:
Employee misclassification: "Pervasive among small businesses" - especially dangerous in California's intense regulatory environment
Multi-state sales tax: Complex compliance web across state lines that buyers inherit
His fix: Make workforce analysis and specialized tax diligence pre-LOI priorities (not post)
Why Individual Buyers Are Beating PE Firms (And How to Maximize Your Advantage): "Mid-single-digit million deals seeing increased PE competition, yet sellers still prefer individuals"
The structure that changes everything: New SBA guidance permits equity rollovers + F-reorganizations for license transfers
Alignment secret: Retention bonuses split between buyer and seller create "powerful alignment of interests"
Market reality: Steady at 2-3x SDE (occasionally 4x) while proprietary deals through cold outreach "continue to yield results"
The opportunity: Many good businesses aren't actively marketed - relationship-driven deals win
From the full discussion: Why comprehensive LOIs (with working capital requirements, seller note terms, and asset structure details) actually close faster • How multi-location deals can use blended SBA amortization • The human factors that matter more than financial engineering
