Our Louisville, Kentucky practice has the breadth of knowledge and experience needed to serve this dynamic and diverse region. The Louisville
office is led by Tom Whitton and Pat Powell. The team's know-how, 30 years of front-line experience and CFA's worldwide presence, combine to deliver the highest possible value to
business sellers and buyers.
For the business seller CFA is essentially a pipeline to buyers. The four critical areas addressed are the ability to:
properly analyze the client's business
find the best buyers - wherever they may be
maximize the company's financial attractiveness
advise clients' on achieving the very best terms
Our commitment to remaining independent from any investment or
lending affiliates ensures that we deliver unbiased guidance. We
represent only one side, your side. Imagine the advantage of
tapping into the negotiating skills of a CFA principal who knows
both sides of a deal.
Selling, buying or financing a business is a complex process
that requires thorough preparation, skillful negotiation, and
intimate knowledge of markets and financial resources. With CFA,
you’ll work locally with a senior principal, who can provide
expert valuation, analysis, and negotiating skills, as well as
preferred access to a national and international network of CFA
industry experts and resources.

Serving as your partner throughout all phases of the
