Buy-Sell Agreement Reviews

Does your buy-sell agreement follow one of the disastrous methods detailed in Business Valuation for Business Owners?

​

Gateway realizes most business owners aren't familiar with the looming disasters they unknowingly face - until it's too late. Attorneys are trained and skilled at addressing legal quandaries (not valuation), yet most buy-sell agreement valuation clauses are drafted by attorneys. 

​

And when disaster occurs, the damage is done.

​

Gateway helps attorneys and business owners by:

• Reviewing the valuation language in a buy-sell agreement or clause

• Recommending changes that all parties can agree on

• Providing an independent and professional perspective on alternative options that may facilitate a more effective buy-sell market mechanism

Independent Appraisal Reviews

Having managed more than $1 billion in closely-held trust assets, Gateway's Principal has reviewed numerous appraisals as both a consultant and a fiduciary.

​

Gateway Valuation Consulting has experience:

• As an independent third-party appraiser for mediation

• Reviewing process-agreement buy-sell appraisals that go to the "next step"

• Reviewing closely-held company appraisals used for employee bank loans 

​

Gateway can provide a written report on significant findings, lead a presentation to key stakeholders or join in a conference call. 

​

Not bound to the billable hour, Gateway can customize a service to meet your needs that fits your budget.
