Why Consider Professional Representation?

The business sale process can be extremely complex, and sometimes the smallest of details can mean a substantial difference in the net proceeds to you as the seller: It’s not just the price, but the terms of the transaction that can make this difference. The Stansberry Firm has the experience and applied knowledge to ensure your business sale is managed and negotiated correctly. Read the 6 points to consider when deciding if professional representation or self representation is best for your transaction.

The Stansberry Firm Promises:

The Stansberry Firm is committed to helping the owners of closely held businesses maximize the value of their business. We approach your business as if we were a shareholder; if we feel we can’t deliver tangible results far in excess of any fees charged, then we won’t take on the engagement.

  • Our goal is to provide honest, fair and professional services that add value to our client companies. If we feel we cannot add value to a particular client, we will tell that to the potential client. We will not exaggerate or alter interpretations of past or anticipated results.

 

  • We will treat all our clients and those that we come in contact with respect and dignity. Our advice and actions are based on years of experience and will not be tempered with emotions or impulsiveness.

 

  • When engaged by a client, we treat that business as if we were a integral part of that company. We will never give advice, or propose services, that are not in the best interest of the owners of that business.
