Selling My Business
Client Comments
I knew when I hired your firm to help me with my business sale, that you were good. But, I had no idea that you would be as good at this as you are.
Larry Mocha - CEO of APSCO, Inc.
I have owned several valve businesses over the last forty years. I?ve worked with lots of people and have done lots of deals around the oil patch. I noticed three things that stuck out as a being as good as I have ever seen, and those were your work ethic, complete commitment to my success, and skill at your job. I will always recommend you and your firm for selling a business, and regard you as a friend.
