Ken and Diane Cyphers, owners of Empire Pest Control, said, “What an incredible job The Aust Group did in representing, marketing, and helping us sell our pest control company. We had never sold a business before and even the thought of it was downright stressful. Choosing The Aust Group immediately paid dividends as their professional and calming influence allowed us to run our business without disruption and to focus on our family, employees, and customers. Like a great lawyer who is passionate about their case, we always felt The Aust Group was working hard for us and doing their best to exceed our expectations in the sale.
