Legal & Compliance

EVR Advisors LLC (“EVR,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is an independent advisory firm specializing in buy-side and sell-side mergers and acquisitions advisory for privately held companies, founders, strategic operators, and institutional or corporate acquirers. Our work is grounded in transparency, regulatory alignment, and a commitment to professional integrity. This Legal & Compliance page explains the scope of our services, the regulatory framework we operate within, and the disclaimers governing the use of this Site and the information we provide.

EVR operates exclusively within the activities permitted under applicable federal guidance for M&A advisory work, including the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s M&A Broker exemption codified under Section 15(b)(13) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This exemption allows qualified M&A advisors to facilitate the sale or acquisition of privately held businesses where the acquirer will control and actively operate the business or its assets after closing. EVR structures all engagements to comply with these requirements and ensures that the transactions we support involve transfers of operating businesses rather than securities offerings.

EVR does not provide securities brokerage services, does not sell or market securities, and does not engage in capital raising, placement agent, fundraising, or investment banking activities. We do not structure securities transactions, solicit investors, arrange financing, or participate in the distribution of securities. At no time does EVR handle client funds, investor funds, escrow accounts, or securities. Nothing on this website or in any communication from EVR should be interpreted as an offer to buy or sell securities or as investment, legal, tax, or financial advice.

We provide advisory services strictly related to business transfers, strategic evaluations, targeted introductions, buyer identification, deal positioning, valuation support, negotiation assistance, strategic outreach, process management, and diligence coordination. Our engagements involve the transfer of privately held companies, business units, or operating assets, and not the marketing of securities to passive investors. All advisory work is governed exclusively by written agreements executed between EVR and its clients.

EVR represents only one party in any transaction. We do not engage in dual representation, dual compensation, or any advisory structure that creates conflicting incentives. All compensation terms, fee structures, expenses, and potential conflicts of interest are disclosed clearly and directly in our written engagement agreements. We adhere to a strict internal process to ensure that our role is clearly defined and that our advisory services align with regulatory standards for non-securities M&A activity.

If a transaction requires capital raising, securities placement, investor solicitation, debt financing, equity financing, or any other activity that falls outside the boundaries of the M&A Broker exemption, those functions are performed exclusively through EVR’s registered broker-dealer partners. In such cases, clients engage directly with the broker-dealer under a separate agreement, and all regulated activity is conducted under the broker-dealer’s supervision in accordance with applicable SEC and FINRA rules. EVR may support operational, commercial, or strategic components of a transaction, but any securities-related work is strictly handled by licensed professionals under the appropriate regulatory umbrella.

EVR continuously reviews its internal procedures, agreements, and advisory practices to ensure alignment with evolving regulatory standards. We take seriously our obligation to operate within the confines of the law, maintain ethical standards, and provide transparent, compliant guidance to clients across all engagements. Our objective is to support successful transactions while upholding the highest levels of diligence and regulatory integrity.
