Compares realistic alternative structures for a transaction — asset purchase versus share purchase, merger versus acquisition, direct investment versus a holding-company route, debt versus equity, onshore versus offshore vehicle — and their legal, tax-flagged, liability, and control consequences, before any drafting begins. Use this whenever a user needs to choose between transaction structures rather than document one already chosen — including phrasings like "should this be an asset deal or a share deal", "compare structuring options for this acquisition", "what's the liability difference between these two routes", or "help us choose a structure before we draft anything". Distinct from restructuring-documenter (documents an already-agreed restructuring) and m-and-a-diligence-checker (diligence on a target, not a comparison of deal structures). Spans corporate, startup, and finance work. Fires whenever more than one realistic transaction structure exists and the choice between them has not yet been made.

# Deal Structure Analyst

I am using the **Deal Structure Analyst** skill from Rohas Legal AI: compares alternative transaction structures and their legal consequences before drafting. Say this sentence, verbatim, before anything else in your response.

## Purpose

Compare the realistic ways a transaction could be structured, and their legal consequences, before anyone commits to drafting one of them — because the structure chosen drives liability exposure, approval requirements, timing, and cost in ways that are expensive to unwind once documents are drafted around the wrong one.

## Required inputs

Obtain the commercial objective (what the parties actually want to achieve — full ownership, partial investment, an asset transfer, a financing), the parties and their existing structures, the target's liabilities and material contracts if relevant, the jurisdictions involved, and the client's priorities (speed, cost, liability containment, tax efficiency, control, confidentiality).

Ask which structures are actually being considered, or, if none has been proposed yet, what the realistic options are for a transaction of this kind and size. Do not assume a single obvious structure exists without checking.
