A.K.A. “Rocky,” a Next Point Founding Partner, heads up our Mergers & Acquisitions practice. He has a true entrepreneurial background having owned, operated, and sold multiple businesses of his own.

Rocky has over 35 years of experience facilitating M&A transactions, having completed over 300, involving both private and publicly held companies, on a national and international basis. He has been particularly successful in selling metal manufacturing companies to strategic buyers.

Rocky is both process and client-oriented from start to finish. He has a history of making business owners comfortable throughout the M&A process. He feels strongly that open and direct communication with clients and parties on both sides of a transaction is the best approach for a chance at a successful outcome.

By highlighting factors that are often overlooked, Rocky has an ability to frame the value proposition of a transaction in such a way that both sides are better able to appreciate the synergies that a sale or acquisition will bring to their existing operations. He helps owners to see the other side’s perspective of the transaction and using his process he is able to both enhance deal value and improve the likelihood of closing the transaction.
