My question involves business law in the state of: Florida. We signed a contract to purchase a business in 2009. The contract states that, "The financial statements have been done with generally acceptable accounting principles" "The books of account are complete and correct."
The previous owners do not have adequate records and mixed their business with their personal purchases. (checks and credit cards) They did not give complete credit card statements or receipts for purchases. The accountant for the companies previous 12 years refuses to speak with us. The trasaction is not complete and the shares are being held in escrow.
