Since joining Gordon Brothers in 2007, Jim has successfully led many complicated, multi-asset transactions that have required both capital and creativity in order to craft a solution for the client.

“Jim and Ulos have successfully led several major equity-based transactions over the years across a multitude of sectors, including consumer products, aerospace, energy, food & beverage, and construction. These transactions required the ability to source, structure, and execute a deal,” stated Bob Maroney, President, Commercial & Industrial. “I look forward to their continued significant contributions to the growth of our Commercial & Industrial practice.”

Valuations
Gordon Brothers became the largest appraisal firm serving the asset-based lending industry in the world following its 2015 acquisition of AccuVal. Today it maintains the largest database of asset recoveries in the world. This data is complemented by hands-on asset liquidation expertise across the full supply chain, globally. “By elevating from within, Aaron, Rick, and Jerry bring detailed knowledge of the appraisal process to clients, having all served as former appraisers,” said Chris Carmosino, President, Valuations. 

Rick manages business development across the Midwest and Northwest regions of the U.S. Rick was formerly the head of Gordon Brothers’ Machinery & Equipment Valuation practice.  Previously, he led AccuVal-LiquiTec’s Machinery & Equipment Valuation practice.

With 20 years’ experience in the industry, Jerry has conducted and managed hundreds of machinery and equipment valuation projects across a wide range of industries. He is a candidate of the American Society of Appraisers.

“Our industrial valuation practice continues to grow, especially in our legacy AccuVal territory across the Midwest” said Frank Grimaldi, Senior Managing Director, North American Sales. “These promotions are instrumental in bolstering and expanding those offerings to clients across North America,” he added.
