“Before the term sheet. Before the lawyers got involved. ... Here’s what thirty-five years of running a family business looks like on paper. We’re not going to wait until you find it — we’re willing to price it.”

Approach & Eugene

Risk isn’t your problem.

Information is. Timing is.

There’s never enough information and waiting for more isn’t usually an option.

This is where you and I start. Whatever you have, wherever you are. What you are trying to do and why. What you hope to gain. What you hope doesn’t happen. Why you’re here, in the first place.

Only you know that.

Thirteen years in, I’ve worked with more situations than most people will ever be in. Not the same situation, but similar enough that I can help you see around some of the corners and deal with the aftermath.

Coming from decades working in kitchens, operations, and logistics — I understand. Sometimes, you don’t have all the information, sometimes things go sideways, you still have to do it and hope for the best or pivot when it doesn’t.

Our Relationship

Most of the time you don’t want a lawyer around. Only when there is a need, when something goes wrong. Speed-dial.

A tactician to get up-to-speed fast and get the job done.

But some decisions are too important for getting-up-to-speed. When you’re preparing for a big change or your business is growing faster than you can manage one-at-a-time, you need someone who already knows you, your business, your goals, your acceptable risks, and the things likely to go sideways.

A partner you know and trust.

Tell me what’s going on.
