Independent representation for a defined transaction.
Transaction Advisory provides focused counsel for a specific acquisition, disposition, or artist commission. The engagement is structured around the client’s objectives and the requirements of the particular matter, from initial assessment and opportunity identification through negotiation and, where agreed, transaction coordination.
The mandate is designed to provide independent judgment at consequential decision points without requiring an ongoing advisory relationship.
Appropriate for: Collectors, families, estates, and institutions seeking representation for a particular purchase, sale, or commission.

Engagement structure: Transaction-specific fee.
Where appropriate, compensation may be calculated as a percentage of the purchase price or sale proceeds, within an indicative range. The applicable fee is established in writing for each mandate, together with its calculation basis, payment trigger, treatment of taxes and related costs, and provisions for delayed, cancelled, or uncompleted transactions. A fixed or other agreed fee structure may be specified where appropriate to the nature of the work.
