You will also have access to our Additional Services to support your transition. These include but are not limited to valuations, succession plans, mergers, introductions, deal structure options, assistance with negotiations, acquisition and planning assistance, drafting contracts, due diligence support, partner retreats and transition strategies to retain the clients and staff. We are consistently successful in identifying firms in your area that are interested in some type of affiliation including a long or short term succession plan, outright sale, upstream merger, seeking to grow through a merger or acquisition, or a staged transition or mergers of firms with younger partners, and, or niches, who can strengthen your internal succession team and firm. We also identify firms not in your area who want to be! We are consultants who can provide transition strategies when you are ready to take the next step in growing your firm, interested in moving to the next level, or slowly taking more time off to enjoy life, or many other avenues of change to meet your life style and work style. We hope you will view the other pages on our website, Buyers, Sellers, Internal Succession, or Mergers, which have a great deal of practical information, as well as our FREE Reports and Case Studies about the changing accounting practice profession. With Transition Advisors you get timely, accurate and helpful assistance from the beginning of the deal, throughout the negotiations until the very end of the process.
