Biography

I bring over 30 years of experience as a business counselor and litigator, focusing on the unique challenges faced by closely held businesses. As Chair of the Business and Corporate Law Department at Weiner Law Group, I have dedicated my career to safeguarding businesses and their owners at every stage of the business lifecycle.

My knowledge extends beyond litigation. I am both a Certified Valuation Analyst (CVA) and a Certified Exit Planning Advisor (CEPA), qualifications that underscore my ability to offer a comprehensive perspective on business challenges. By combining legal acumen with financial insight, I empower business owners to make informed decisions that protect and enhance their investment.

As a CVA, I excel at providing accurate and reliable business valuations, a critical element for mergers, acquisitions, estate planning, and ownership transitions. As a CEPA, I help business owners prepare for successful exits by addressing value gaps, mitigating risks, and preserving legacy.

My commitment to my clients goes beyond legal advice. I am a trusted partner, helping business owners achieve their goals through thoughtful planning and proactive guidance. By addressing the unique challenges of closely held businesses, I empower my clients to focus on what they do best: running and growing their businesses.
