About Addison
Biography
I love what I do. Helping companies and their owners and executives manage through change is exciting and fun. Closing a successful transaction is the best feeling in the world. I thrive on working through the legal issues necessary to reach a stated objective for both the investors, the owners, and the other parties involved.
My firm has the best lawyers in their field, and the best business minds any where. We love to help put together deals for the mutual benefit of all parties involved. We are entrepreneurial with respect to our fees, and provide value beyond our legal advice.
I enjoy running and biking and playing golf and tennis. Most of all I love spending time with my wife and two children.
