Brad Cashman Bio

Brad represents and advises businesses, business owners and financial institutions in a broad range of transactions including mergers and acquisitions, divestures, capital structuring, financing and real estate leasing and sales. While Brad’s work has ranged across industries such as manufacturing, oil & gas, construction, professional services and real estate development, he has been particularly active in the multi-unit franchise industry, working with franchisees, investors and lenders who require experienced legal counsel and expertise in this area. Brad’s practice is national in scope: he has worked on and closed transactions from coast to coast and most places in-between. Prior to joining MMB, Brad worked in the Bismarck, North Dakota office of a large regional law firm, where he focused on lending, mineral rights and commercial transactions in the energy industry within the states of North Dakota, South Dakota and Montana. In addition to being an attorney, Brad has prior experience as a certified public accountant, having worked at LarsonAllen, LLP (now CliftonLarsonAllen) in the areas of audit and tax for private mid-sized construction and real estate development companies and as an analyst for a Minneapolis-based real estate development company focusing on the acquisition and development of office, apartment and condominium properties. This broad business experience, in combination with his legal background, allows Brad to look beyond the narrow legal issue and to provide strategic advice which helps put his clients in the best position to achieve both their legal and business objectives.
