Jessika Arce Graham

Weiss Serota Helfman Cole + Bierman P.L.

Jessika is an M&A attorney for female founders, which is a fancy way of saying she helps entrepreneurs sell their businesses for everything they're worth when the time comes. While much of the legal world focuses on business formation and trademarks, Jessika is passionate about the other end of the entrepreneurial journey: the exit.

She believes the sale of a business is one of the most significant moments in a founder's career—something years in the making, yet often overlooked until it's right around the corner. Getting it right can be the difference between a life-changing transaction and a sale that simply happens to you.

The good news? Preparing for a successful exit starts earlier than most founders realize, and it's far more learnable than it seems. Jessika's mission is to help founders understand the process without overwhelming legal jargon or fear-based advice. She translates complex M&A and exit strategies into plain English, sharing the insights she wishes more founders had long before they needed them.

Based in Miami, Jessika is fueled by iced coffee, big plans, and a passion for helping women build—and eventually sell—businesses on their own terms.
