Serving Ontario And Atlantic Canada. 140 practices sold over 24 years in public practice and brokerage.
About Michael
Michael spent sixteen years in public practice, the last nine as managing partner of a four-partner firm in Mississauga that he sold in 2014. He has brokered accounting practice sales full time since then and has led more than 140 closings across Ontario and Atlantic Canada.
He is known for pricing practices on evidence, for keeping sales confidential until the day the seller chooses to announce, and for staying involved through the client transition. Sellers describe him as the broker who tells them what their practice is worth, not what they hope it is worth.
