Buying Your First Business
If you're looking to diversify your income or gain financial independence (and who isn't?), buying your own business is one of the strongest moves you can make.
And if you're looking to buy a business, you have a key advantage: you're a lawyer, and you know other lawyers.
So take advantage of your skillset and leverage it for further gains.
Join us to hear Vivek Jayaram of Jayaram Law walk us through the key legal documents and practical considerations to buy your first business.
What should be in a term sheet? What's a Stock Purchase Agreement? What happens after you close?
Vivek will demystify the process he's used to guide clients through acquisitions of small and medium businesses. All will be revealed.
Honestly, I can't believe we're giving this content away for free. Consider yourself fortunate.
Here are some of the businesses Vivek's team have helped clients with:
- Sale of cannabis company for $125,000;
- Sale of software business for $400,000;
- Sale of IT Services company for $900,000;
- Acquisition of a SaaS startup for $2,000,000;
- Acquisition of software company at $13,000,000;
- Acquisition of logistics business of $14,000,000;
- Sale of a division of a major hardware company, $25,000,000;

I'm excited about this, to say the least.

Asian Portrait Project Event
I'm pleased to share in collaboration with Yusuf Zakir, the Chief Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Officer at Davis Wright Tremaine, Pani Cooler members can attend the Asian Portrait Project event with Ajay Mehrotra on the Asian Portrait Project, moderated by DWT Partner and Energy Practice Group Chair Vid Prabhakaran.
Ajay Mehrotra is the Executive Director of the American Bar Foundation (ABF) and an accomplished professor and author. He is a Research Professor at the ABF, a Professor of Law at Northwestern University’s Pritzker School of Law, and an Affiliated Professor of History at Northwestern University.
A Portrait of Asian Americans in the Law (the Asian Portrait Project), published in 2017 by Yale Law School and the National Asian Pacific American Bar Association, is a systematic analysis of how Asian Americans are situated in the legal profession. The full report can be found here. Professor Mehrotra is developing phase 2.0 of the Asian Portrait Project study which will include a deeper exploration of the empirical reasons and potential solutions for the current challenges faced by the Asian American legal community.
Student Insights
We have tremendous legal talent among the students in this community. I've advocated elsewhere for law students to take control of their career by building a brand early by publishing and building an audience.
If you are a law student interested in sharing your insights and boost your profile with a thousand South Asian lawyers, you can have your insights published in Pani Cooler. You can apply here.
