Learning Moment

  • Brian tells us about one of his more challenging transactions, the sale of a local telecom business owned by five individuals.  Four of the five wanted to set up charitable structures for their share of the proceeds.  As a reflection of Hogan Law Group’s holistic approach, they were able to adapt and satisfy each of the partners desires for distribution of the proceeds.
  • Brian points out that there are usually 3 destinations for the equity from a  sale:
    • 1. Family/ Friends
    • 2. Government (Taxes)
    • 3. Charities

Tell us something good

  • Brian talks about representing a minority owner in a business sale.  The unique wrinkle here was that the business owners were ex-spouses.  There were many novel personal issues that threatened process.  Ultimately, they were able to complete the deal – the former marriage had big impact on deal.
