What just a few of our clients say about us:
“Grover Rutter has represented our companies in a number of transactions, acquisitions, spin-offs and sales of business interests, most recently the sale of a specialty fabrication company. Whenever we have sold a company, we have relied on Grover for his expertise. In one example, when we sold a tank transportation business, his structuring strategies on closing saved us in excess of $250,000 more in taxes than what our CPA firm thought was possible. We believe that anyone wanting to buy or sell a business would be well-served by Mr. Rutter.”
Rick D.
“We were pleasantly surprised when we received an offer to purchase the business after only being on the market for a few months. And, the buyer was only the second person who had been shown the business. This was impressive! The buyer offered us exactly what you had suggested as the price for the business which, I might add, was somewhat more than what we had thought to set the price at. Thank you for your knowledge and expertise during the selling process of our business.”
Jim S.
“I would like to thank you once again for all your expert advice and guidance during the sale of my business. You are aware of my previous efforts to handle a potential buyer before we met. It was a long, drawn-out process that involved many hours, months, expensive attorney fees and ultimately failure. With your help we had a buyer within 6 months and a signed bill of sale 6 weeks later. I highly recommend your services.”
