“As we review the successful sale of our company after 60 years in business, it is only appropriate that my brother, Stan, and I write to express our gratitude for all of your advice and participation in a process that began many years ago when we were first introduced. Now that the sale is complete, the impact and validity of your advice and the meticulous handling of our business over the years have completely borne out the benefits you described all along. Although the M&A world may be filled with firms which provide services to buyers and sellers, as old-school entrepreneurs, Stan and I are thrilled that it was Adam Zarren, Jason Harmon and your team that was involved before, during, and after the sale process. We are glad, and our families are glad. With sincere personal gratitude, we offer our thanks to the excellent team at Zarren Law Group. The outcome might have been very different without you.” said Jerry Skalka, Co-Founder and CEO of Victor Stanley, Inc.
“I, along with the rest of TeamZLG are absolutely thrilled for Jerry and Stan and the rest of the Victor Stanley team! It was a true pleasure working with Jerry and Stan for nearly a decade and watching Victor Stanley continue to grow and flourish – most recently under the leadership of Bryan and Emma. A deal with this type of outcome could not happen to a nicer, more humble family of entrepreneurs. We couldn’t be happier for all of them on this very successful well-deserved transaction. Congratulations to the entire Victor Stanley and PlayCore teams!” said Adam Zarren, Managing Partner of ZLG.
