Review Ryan Nori

Mr. Ryan Nori is a of a kind Dealmaker

Posted by

This review is long over due but I wanted to write it as a small token of our appreciation for Mr. Ryan Nori's hard work. We received exceptional service and quality of work from Mr. Ryan Nori during the sale of our business to a private equity firm. His commitment and passion at times exceeded our owns! Thank you again to everyone that assisted us in the sale.

Everyone I dealt with were super responsive and caring. I really appreciated Mr. Nori's accessibility, knowledge, skills and strategic approach. He mediated and resolved a business dispute which I was struggling with for almost 11 months in a few weeks! Thank you for all your help Mr. Nori.
