CLIENT STORY

Dr. Marino successfully sold his veterinary practice for a profitable exit, secured long-term passive income, and now has a clear, disciplined wealth plan for the next phase of his life.

A Well-Executed Business Exit

Dr. Marino

After decades of building a highly profitable veterinary practice, our client—a respected medical professional and business owner—was ready to transition into the next chapter of his life. Despite the practice’s strong financials and loyal client base, he faced a familiar dilemma for many first-time sellers: uncertainty around valuation, a lack of clarity on the exit process, and mounting pressure from seasoned private equity buyers who negotiate transactions like his every day.


Dr. Marino asked us to be his lead advisor overseeing all dimensions of the transaction—financial, strategic, and personal. Our role was not simply to manage investments, but to orchestrate a seamless and successful exit that preserved optionality, captured value, and positioned him for lasting independence.

After decades of building a highly profitable veterinary practice, our client—a respected medical professional and business owner—was ready to transition into the next chapter of his life.

What began as an uphill battle became a successful, structured transition. Our client sold his practice to a national consolidator offering both the most competitive economic package and the flexibility he needed to step away on his own timeline. He retained ownership of his building, secured long-term passive income, and now has a clear, disciplined wealth plan for the next phase of his life.

Private Wealth Services That Support Our Clients' Goals

Holistic Financial Architecture

We built a comprehensive personal financial plan that anchored Dr. Marino's decision-making. It quantified what he needed from the sale, clarified what was at stake, and ultimately empowered him to negotiate from a position of strength.

 

Centralized Professional Coordination

We acted as the hub between his CPA, legal counsel, and the business broker—ensuring full alignment, consistent communication, and adherence to critical deal timelines. By unifying all stakeholders, we helped eliminate friction, kept the process on track and ensured an deal aligned with our client's objectives.

 

Sophisticated Asset Allocation Strategy

We created a post-sale investment framework that was both scalable and tax-efficient, tailored to his evolving needs and risk tolerance as he moved from operator to investor.

M&A Process Oversight

We led the journey interviewing investment bankers and business brokers. We ultimately selected a specialized business broker with deep veterinary transaction experience and oversaw marketing of the practice to 25+ national consolidators and PE-backed platforms.


We negotiated the price and optimal terms, including:

• A limited post-sale work requirement

• Above-market rental terms for the medical office he continues to own

• A buyer aligned with his values, culture, and legacy
