Angela (Angie) Armenta has a wide range of experience, but unlike other Kansas City attorneys, Angie’s experience began with a career as a chemical engineer.

She loved solving complex problems as a chemical engineer, but found she didn’t enjoy the technical side of the job.  Rather, she discovered that her passion was working with and helping other people to solve their complex problems and decided the law would be the perfect fit for her skill set and motivations.  As a member of the Seigfreid Bingham team, Angie enjoys helping clients find practical solutions to their business challenges.

Your go-to attorney for M&A work in all industries.

Angie spends the bulk of her time helping businesses execute mergers and acquisitions, with an emphasis in equipment dealer, franchise, and private equity transactions.

When working on a merger and acquisition, Angie seeks to understand your business and your specific situation, including why the transaction is occurring in the first place and what outcome you want. She then takes a customized and practical approach to negotiating and executing the transaction.

Angie prides herself on working with clients at all stages, from startups confronting their first round of investment to companies who deal with M&As on a regular basis.  She has experience representing buyers, sellers, investors and issuers, which means Angie is equipped to provide you sound legal counsel regardless of your position at the table.

The business acumen to serve your needs.

Other areas of her practice involve assisting clients in general business matters from negotiation of commercial contracts and preparation of shareholder agreements to structuring legally compliant sweepstakes and promotions. She also assists franchisors with legal aspects of their franchise system and represents companies both domestically and abroad.

When she’s not practicing law, Angie enjoys cooking, traveling and caring for her children.
