Victoria L. Collier
CELA, CEPA, CVBA
Victoria Collier opened her own law firm straight out of law school, building from the experience she obtained as a paralegal in the Air Force and in the private sector. Although Victoria’s niche was in Elder Law Estate Planning, she created a niche within that niche by being the first to teach Veterans Benefits for Seniors to elder law attorneys across the nation. In addition, Victoria co-owned a multi-million dollar company coaching other estate and elder law attorneys on how to build and scale their law firms.
Victoria owned and operated her law firm for 18 years before she sold it in 2020. Prior to the sale, Victoria maintained average gross revenues between $1 – $1.5 million dollars for five consecutive years. Victoria currently co-owns another 8-figure business that helps Veterans, as well as owning a consulting firm. She has previously owned an insurance firm, publishing company, and a real estate business.
Victoria has completed an extensive study on the valuation, purchase, merger, and sale of businesses, including obtaining her Certified Exit Planning Advisor and Certified Value Builder designations.
Victoria loved her business and the clients she served. And then she didn’t. She knew she had a choice to either fall back in love with it or to sell it to someone else. She decided to sell it to someone else (when you get the chance, ask her why she chose that option). Victoria spent three years positioning her law firm to sell it. Then, when the decision was made to sell, it took less than 90 days to find the buyer, draft the legal documents, and close.
Victoria now spends a great deal of her time with her children on the farm (as well as in the city where they still live and go to school), and coaching attorneys on building and positioning their law firms to either support its owner the right way or allow the owner to sell it and feel good when walking away.
