Dealership Buy-Sell, Franchise & Dispute Counsel
Dealer-side counsel for acquisitions, sales, manufacturer approval, and the disputes that show up when deals get hard — from someone who has sat in the zone office and the GM chair.
Dealership Buy-Sell & M&A
Most dealership deals do not fail because nobody hired a lawyer. They stall on manufacturer approval, ROFR, site control, facility asks, or diligence that should have informed the LOI. I help dealer principals — and the brokers and CPAs beside them — run that process in order.
- LOI through APA, real estate, and closing coordination
- Manufacturer approval and ROFR issues
- Auto, truck, equipment, RV, powersports/marine, aviation
