Attorney Case History

Start-Up Telecommunications Company

Jeffrey represented a start-up telecommunications company from its inception and served as its general counsel through its sale to a publicly-traded company for more than $500 million. As general counsel, he was instrumental in drafting contracts which were at the cutting edge of the telecommunications boom. Jeffrey's input on all legal matters was instrumental in strategic planning and decision-making throughout his term of service. When the company was sold, the transaction was structured so that the original owners were able to retain assets of great value. These assets were then used to form another company, providing the owners with greatly enhanced returns on their initial investment.

Automotive Parts Manufacturer Sale

$100+ million sale of a niche automotive parts manufacturer with plants throughout the world to a private equity fund.

Long-Distance Carrier Sale

$150 million asset sale of a long distance carrier to a publicly traded company.

Retail Chain Stores Sale

$10 million asset sale of a family owned chain of retain stores.

Office Equipment Vendor Sale

$35 million sale of an office equipment vendor to a publicly traded company.
