Business Lawyer in Tampa

Tampa is one of Florida's fastest-growing business centers. We represent owners, buyers, and investors in Tampa on acquisitions and exits, commercial real estate, entity structure, and the contracts that run a company.

The Approach

Deal counsel who has sat on the banker's side of the table.

Jack Ross works on lower middle market transactions from both the legal and the investment banking side: origination, valuation, diligence, and negotiation for founder-owned businesses. The purchase agreement should match the economics the parties agreed to, and the risk allocation should hold up after closing.

Florida matters are handled by Jack N. Ross, Esq., licensed to practice law in Florida, from the firm's Oakland Park office, by appointment.

Before you sign a letter of intent, a lease, or a partner agreement, have counsel review it. The terms set early are the hardest to renegotiate later.
