Maslon and Finance & Commerce Present Seminar for Business Owners on Preparing a Company for Sale

March 6, 2024

Maslon attorneys Susan Markey, Evan Berquist, Katie Eisler, and Terri Krivosha share their expertise on March 6 during a complimentary half-day seminar for business owners on how and when to prepare their company for sale. The event, presented in conjunction with Finance & Commerce at Brookview Golden Valley, also features panelists Thomas Jones of BDO USA, LLP; Cameron Wood of Northborne Partners; Patrick Finn of Lighthouse Management Group; Cory Markling from EisnerAmper; Becky Krieger with Accredited Investors Wealth Management; and Peter Slocum of Bayview Capital Group.

The seminar features two presentations:

  • Demystifying the Deal: Business owners may be unfamiliar with the transaction process or simply looking to sharpen their understanding. This panel will provide a roadmap of what should happen before, during, and after the sale of a company.
  • Five Ways to Maximize the Value of Your Business for Sale: Owners—and potentially their family members, co-investors, and other key stakeholders—know better than anyone what it has taken to grow their business and the impact that its sale would have on their future. Panelists describe how to help ensure a positive outcome.

To register for the event, go to M&A Seminar on Preparing Your Company for Sale.

Susan Markey, a partner and chair of Maslon's Corporate & Securities Group, represents clients in mergers and acquisitions, general corporate, taxation, and nonprofit matters. She draws from a diverse background in government, accounting, and law to serve as a holistic business advisor, and strongly believes that legal advice should be both easy to understand and practical.

Evan Berquist is a partner in Maslon's Corporate & Securities Group focusing on mergers and acquisitions, strategic financing transactions, and general corporate and commercial matters. He has a decade of experience in private practice, most recently at an AmLaw100 firm, managing both domestic and international transactions for a wide range of clients.

Katie Eisler, a Corporate & Securities Group partner, manages and negotiates complex mergers & acquisitions, corporate reorganizations, buy-sell agreements, and business succession agreements. Her expertise also includes negotiating, drafting, and revising a variety of commercial contracts, with particular focus on technology-related agreements.

Terri Krivosha is a former partner and now senior counsel and chair of professional development at Maslon. A business attorney and mediator, she enjoys nothing more than helping shareholders, family business owners, and companies buy or sell businesses or solve their legal problems—the more complicated, the better. Terri loves helping clients and parties to a mediation resolve conflict.
