“Just wanted to take a minute to let you know how much we appreciated the help with the sale of our Medtech contract manufacturing company. Principals of Kinsella Group [in their capacity as registered investment banking agents of Burch & Company, Inc.] estimated the time to close from the initiation of the engagement to be 9 to 12 months and the deal closed in exactly 9 months. Your Group’s appropriately aggressive leadership ensured that all parties were focused and committed to closing the transaction. I would recommend Kinsella Group to any prospective seller in the Medtech space.”
- Tom Eisenman, CEO, Southeastern Technologies
