SOME OF MARK'S RESULTS:
(Each case stands on its own merits. No promise or warranty of specific results in your case should be inferred from results of these past cases.)
The $12 million/year corporate client continued to lose money despite annual growth. Mark performed cost accounting and job bidding analysis, identifying unprofitable activities and customers, and a review of accounting systems, which revealed record-keeping gaps that precluded management's discovery of the causes. Mark then assisted management in devising a plan to improve profitability, including the implementation of price structure changes, elimination of unprofitable business, and changes to bidding processes. The business was turned around and ultimately sold, allowing the owner to retire.

High-profile client was referred initially due to a tax issue. The client had been in a Chapter 11 bankruptcy for some 2-1/2 years, had a settlement in a still-pending divorce proceeding that was contingent on bankruptcy court approval, had just completed a Federal tax audit resulting in a liability of several million dollars which was to be collected, and had no current income of significance. He had top notch bankruptcy representation, a multi-office accounting firm, highly-recommended family law counsel, and a personal lawyer. Despite the line-up of experts, the proposed “solution” would have left the client with next to nothing.
Mark devised creative plan of reorganization which resolved interrelated financial, tax, business, intellectual property, and legal challenges, saved the client several million dollars in taxes, allowed the client to retain significant wealth, and redirected the client's energies & resources from past problems to future revenue creation.
