M&A in the Fashion Industry: An Employment Law Perspective

Michael R. Marra writes: Although deals differ in emphasis, labor and employment issues tend to receive less attention in a fashion or retail acquisition than big-ticket items like financial statements, material contracts, intellectual property, etc. However, ignoring labor issues comes with meaningful risks, not only for buyers, but also for prospective targets thinking about "cleaning up" their profile prior to seeking acquisition partners.
