Our Deal Support Plus and NextGen Deal Support services feature our award-winning valuation—recognized by industry leaders as a powerful tool for advisor growth and successful deal making. We provide a calculation of value that combines the market-based approach used across the advisory industry with the proven M&A standard of discounted earnings analysis. By integrating these two methods, we deliver a balanced perspective that reflects the interests of both buyer and seller.
Our seasoned M&A consultants can represent the buyer, seller, or act as a neutral third party in internal successions. We prepare a detailed term sheet outlining key terms, deal structure, and essential protections—balancing risk while fostering commitment to a successful outcome. This term sheet then serves as the blueprint for legal counsel, guiding the preparation of all required agreements.
We will provide you with what you need when you need it. No over-sized packages, long-term commitments, or services you don’t want.
