William F. Knese CMA CFM CPA, Retired CFO, Angus Industries, Inc.

I have known and worked with John Kober for nearly a decade. John has been a trusted legal and financing advisor throughout this period. He was instrumental in setting up the deal that took our company to a 100% ESOP-owned entity, as well as the deal that successfully sold our company. John was our “go-to” guy with questions and sourcing needs throughout this period. He is a well-respected and recognized expert, and knows the key players in the ESOP community. As a result of John’s contacts, we were connected with the right expertise whenever needs arose. I am a fan of John’s expertise, ability, and experience, and I respect him for the ethical way he does business.
