  Representative Matters: When an out-of-state, for-profit hospice provider wanted to obtain a license from the Rhode Isl
  Department of Health, Susan helped the client navigate its way through the regulatory process, anticipating
  overcoming all objections raised
  challenges encountered. She helped demonstrate the state agency
  other interested parties that a for-profit healthcare provider could deliver high-quality services
  be a good corporate citizen.
  When the founders of a successful closely-held business wanted to structure a transfer of ownership to their children as well as to certain longtime employees, Susan devised
  implemented a transition plan that enabled a harmonious relationship among the directors
  the shareholders, with mechanisms for decision-making to avoid deadlock
  dissipation of the assets
  to promote the long-term success
  welfare of the company.
  When a local company was in danger of defaulting on a substantial loan to Susan's European client
  a major supplier to the Rhode Isl
  corporation, Susan negotiated a conversion of the debt to a controlling equity interest in the company to protect her client's interests
  provide a continued source of future sales.
