Joseph S. von Kaenel has been recognized by the St. Louis Small Business Monthly for "Best M&A (Mergers and Acquisitions) Service Providers in St. Louis".  The SBM, a locally owned, regional publication, recognizes businesses monthly in their "Best in Business” feature after polling their readers and asking them to help identify the best in the area in a particular industry.  

Joe has handled numerous M&A transactions ranging in size from under one million dollars to over one billion dollars on both the buy side and the sell side, as well as public transactions and private transactions.  Joe says, “The success of an M&A transaction depends largely on due diligence. The seller must identify potential problem areas and fix them before going to market and the buyer must identify the material issues and ask the right questions.”
