John Clark, the COO of Heritage Petroleum commented “We have bought 25 companies in 12 years but had never sold anything. The Legacy Energy team presented, then executed a plan seamlessly to make our first selling experience a success. I would not only use them again, but I would recommend them to other companies looking to execute a transition."
