We give no-nonsense advice and have the experience to protect our client’s life time investment in building up their business.
Since the early 1980s, we have been active in representing both sellers and buyers. Additionally, we represent our clients who may or may not have representatives from investment banking firms acting as financial advisors and frequently work with company lenders, accountants and other advisers to develop the best price, the best terms and the best outcome for our seller clients. We also advise companies, private equity investors and special committees of the boards of directors in restructurings, recapitalizations, developing joint ventures and strategic alliances, and pursuing new business partners or investors for expansion.
