| About John McCauley | ||
|
John McCauley is a transactional lawyer and consultant focused on lower middle market business sales. He received his JD from Creighton School of Law and an advanced degree in taxation from Pacific McGeorge School of Law, and spent decades in transactional practice representing buyers and sellers in lower middle market private target deals.
Since 2017 John has written continuously about how courts have ruled when lower middle market deals go wrong — tracking the recurring mistakes that cost one-time sellers money they should have kept. The M&A Stories blog now encompasses more than 600 case studies drawn from actual deal litigation. John's work focuses on the information asymmetry that exists in lower middle market transactions — where a founder selling a business once in a lifetime sits across the table from a sophisticated buyer team that does nothing but this. His goal is simple: level the playing field. He has been published in Taxes, State Tax Notes, Los Angeles Lawyer, Orange County Lawyer, and the California Tax Lawyer. He is the author of two guides for business owners and their advisors: · Buying Established Business Assets: A Guide for Owners · Selling Established Business Assets: A Guide for Owners and Advisors |
