St. Louis Letters of Intent Lawyer

What Is In A Letters Of Intent in Missouri?

A letter of intent, sometimes called an LOI, statement of intent or memorandum of understanding, is a mostly nonbinding document used to summarize intentions between parties when considering joining a business, acquiring a business, selling a business or leasing commercial real estate. The letter of intent establishes what an agreement between the parties may look like in general terms while establishing confidentiality and other protection so that both parties can openly share information in the “due diligence process.” In the due diligence process, parties to the LOI can openly share detailed financial information, business processes, employees, customers and all aspects of a business.

If done correctly, the letter of intent is specifically nonbinding but will outline purchase price, payment terms, timing, obligations of the parties, anticipated noncompete agreements and other terms that will later be integrated into a binding purchase agreement. In addition to the nonbinding terms, there are usually binding terms as to confidentiality, exclusivity, governing law and nonsolicitation.
