Experience

For more than 35 years, Barry has been providing accounting, tax and business advisory services to the owners of closely held businesses in a variety of industries, including healthcare, technology, real estate, manufacturing and distribution. Prior to joining Steinberg Advisors in 2001, where he is Director of Business Consulting Services, he  managed his own CPA practice for many years. A well-rounded professional, Barry also has direct experience in managing a business.

Expertise

Barry excels in providing strategic business planning services that help companies grow and increase their profitability. Because of his extensive work with closely held businesses, as well as his hands-on experience as a former business owner, Barry has an insider’s understanding of the issues and challenges involved in starting up, growing and transitioning a business. He is particularly skilled in strategic planning, forecasting, profitability enhancement, succession and exit planning, mergers, acquisitions and divestitures.

Approach

In working with clients, Barry uses his highly developed knowledge of the factors that make an enterprise successful in order to analyze a business’s strengths and challenges and to identify specific areas of importance. He then helps the owners think about ways to address their most pressing issues, increase profits and realize their growth goals. To this end, he gets involved in advisory board meetings, assists in dealing with lenders and investors, and advises owners about acquisitions, business structure, product lines and strategy.
