Nearly Three Decades.
One Industry
I represent buyers and sellers of adult nightclubs and adult retail stores across the U.S. and internationally — quietly, and at the highest level.
Specialized.
Confidential.
Worldwide
From valuation to closing, every step is handled with precision, privacy, and decades of industry-specific expertise.
Valuation
A comprehensive market analysis that determines what your business is actually worth — and positions it to command the best possible price.
Marketing
Confidential, direct outreach to a vetted network of serious buyers — no public listings, no exposure, no risk to your operation.
Negotiation
Experienced representation through every stage of the deal, structured to protect your interests and close on the right terms.
In this article, Larry Kaplan, StorErotica's Legal Correspondent and a licensed business broker with more than 20 years of experience guiding adult business owners through successful acquisitions and exits, explains why right now presents a compelling window for adult store owners to consider selling and why waiting may cost you more than acting swiftly.

Why No Current
Listings Page?
Confidentiality is the foundation of everything I do. Publicly listing a store's name and address — as many brokers do — unsettles customers, alerts competitors, and ultimately hurts the business you're trying to sell. Worse, if a listing lingers too long, savvy buyers take it as a signal to lowball. After nearly 30 years in this industry, I do things differently: I work exclusively with a network of experienced, vetted buyers, keeping the seller's intentions completely private. Prospective buyers who reach out are welcome, but they'll only receive information after I've vetted them, confirmed they're a qualified fit for a specific club, and secured a signed NDA. Your sale stays your business.
