I created a contract with Graham Partners whereby I'd go out an find a company or companies that they may have an interest in purchasing and that they had not already been shown/were not already talking to. We spent nearly six weeks tweaking the agreement so that it clearly represented what we both wanted it to represent. Once we had that in place I went to work. Over the course of the following eight months I spent over 240 hours on this project for them and I found them one company we agreed was the target. It seemed a perfect fit! I contact the CEO/Owners and I introduced GP. This all took weeks of calls to reach the right people. What happened next? Graham Partners had some assistant-level person contact me to say that they did not want me working on the project any longer. They actually told me that the target company was in play and that they needed me to back off. I did. I was emotionally drained and caring for my cancer stricken mother. I did nothing. My mother died in August 2014. She is with God. Today I am strong and feeling good. And I am ready to
state clearly how I was used by this firm. Perhaps they are wonderful people. All I know is what I know and I know that Graham Partners treated me very poorly. They were strong and I was weak and they used me.
