What Killed Deals in 2025 Webinar
December 12, 2025
by a professional from Harvard University in Durham, NC, USA
Join Barlow & Williams, a team of M&A attorneys, for a discussion on “What Killed Deals in 2025.” We’ll walk through real-world examples of transactions that fell apart between LOI and Closing.
Attorneys Bill Barlow and James David Williams will break down the most common deal-killers we saw this year, including diligence surprises, lender retrades, seller issues, regulatory obstacles, and buyer-side missteps. More importantly, we’ll discuss practical, actionable strategies you can use to keep your deal on track and increase your chances of getting from LOI to a successful closing.
As always, there will be time for Q&A, so come prepared with your questions for any part of the acquisition process.
