Key Takeaways

  • ROFRs can complicate sales, impact asset value, and introduce negotiation delays.
  • In family law, ROFRs can lead to disputes over scheduling, communication, and third-party caregivers.

  • There are strategic and legal considerations to weigh before including ROFR provisions in any agreement.

What is a Right of First Refusal?
