Situation:
I had previously sold my Managing Member interest
in a significant nationally franchised real estate

needed organization of supporting docs, conventional
financial analysis, and most importantly, negotiation
assistance and direction. Ed Stevens and his associates
accurately organized and analyzed all financial
and legal histories, and established a negotiable

coupled with solid negotiating abilities led to
a financial cash settlement in excess of 10 times
the forced buyout offer, and was within the confines
of the original purchase and sale agreement.
